Tonight, the Golden Knights did not look like a team that can simply afford to sit a PPG player for the rest of the season. They may be leading the division at the moment, but they're only five points ahead of the second wild card. This is no time to get complacent and assume that the playoffs are a certainty.
Moneypuck has Vegas with an 86.4% chance of making the playoffs. Without Stone, those chances go down significantly.
All this, of course, leaves aside the fact that you can't just declare a player off your cap for the season if he is fit to play.
