Mark Stone has been one of the most efficient producers in the league, piling up 60 points through 42 games.
My Golden Knights vs. Penguins predictions see the Vegas captain making plenty of noise offensively in Pittsburgh.
Let’s take a closer look at my NHL picks for Sunday, March 1.
Golden Knights vs Penguins prediction
Golden Knights vs Penguins best bet: Mark Stone Over 0.5 assists (-135)
Mark Stone has 39 helpers through 42 games, recording at least one in 60% of his appearances.
He’s most productive when playing on a line with both Jack Eichel and Ivan Barbashev. He has averaged 1.7 points per game with that duo compared to 1.3 when he’s not, and his average assist output is higher.
The Pittsburgh Penguins have picked up three of four points without Sidney Crosby, but they’ve looked more vulnerable, conceding 35+ chances and 3.6+ expected goals in each. They’ve also won just 31.6% of faceoffs, leading to more time spent defending.
Stone is positioned well to capitalize.

Golden Knights vs Penguins same-game parlay
Jack Eichel has missed eight games this season, yet he still leads the Golden Knights in shots on goal by a comfortable margin (28).
He centers Mark Stone on a lethal top line as well as on the power play. He’s on the receiving end of more quality Stone passes than anybody, making him a prime candidate to score.
Noah Hanifin takes a lot of his shots from the left point, and the Penguins rank 24th in shots allowed to that area over the last 20 games.
