The puck was feet away from Mark Stone when he slipped at center ice.
All the Golden Knights captain needed to do was touch it to get a whistle. Defenseman Alex Pietrangelo had hit the puck with a high stick in the neutral zone, so the play would’ve been blown dead if the Knights got possession.
Stone’s fall prevented that from happening. Center Phillip Danault got to the puck first instead, starting a transition opportunity for the Los Angeles Kings.
