Looks like Mark Stone is wolverine, having suddenly grown a new spleen just in time for the post-season. Vegas must have some compromising photos of a giddy Bettman to allow VGK to circumvent the cap year after year. More power to Vegas, but sucks for the rest of the league, especially for jabronies like Ottawa whose incompetent GM cost them a 1st by trying to hoodwink Vegas into taking a shitty Dadonov contract.
You do realize that last year the additions they fit in with Stone on LTIR was Blueger and Quick, right? Hardly the kind of elite talent that puts a team over the top.
This is the only year they've made a major addition (Hertl, Mantha) in expectation Stone would be out until the playoffs, which was reasonable considering he lacerated his spleen a little over a month ago.
