The Vegas Golden Knights will be without forward Mark Stone and defenceman Alex Pietrangelo for Monday’s game against the Minnesota Wild.

Mark Stone and Alex Pietrangelo have both been ruled out for tonight’s game in Minnesota.

Pietrangelo took a puck to the wrist on Saturday. I’ve heard it could be a little worse than initially thought. #VegasBorn

Stone left Saturday’s game against the San Jose Sharks in the second period for precautionary reasons. The Golden Knights captain leads the team with 27 points in 21 games this season.

Pietrangelo also suffered an injury against the Sharks after blocking a shot with his arm late in the third period. In his first season with Vegas, the 31-year-old has 10 points in 18 games.
