Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Jeremy Lauzon (undisclosed) sat out Saturday's practice, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports. Lauzon missed the second-round series matchup with the Anaheim Ducks due to an undisclosed injury, and it's unclear whether he will be cleared to return for the Western Conference Finals against Colorado. In Round 1 against Utah, Lauzon didn't contribute offensively but had eight blocks and 14 hits in six games. With Lauzon out, Ben Hutton has seen regular action on the blue line. However, Hutton has been limited to 13:48 of ice time per game in a third-pairing role, making him a non-factor in fantasy.

Vegas Golden Knights right wing Mark Stone (lower body) didn't practice on Saturday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports. Stone missed the last three games of the second-round series against Anaheim due to a lower-body injury. It's not a good sign that Stone didn't practice on Saturday, but he still has some time to get healthy for the start of the next round -- the Western Conference Finals against Colorado begin on Wednesday. Stone has tallied three goals and four assists in nine playoff outings. Brandon Saad has been filling in for him, but with only 8:39 of ice time per game, his fantasy value is limited.

Colorado Avalanche defenseman Josh Manson (undisclosed) didn't practice on Saturday and is considered day-to-day, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports. The 34-year-old returned from an upper-body injury in Game 4 of the second-round series against Minnesota, but he still appears to be dealing with health issues. It's unclear whether Manson is still bothered by his previous upper-body injury or if this is a new problem. Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar expects Manson to resume skating before Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals against the Vegas Golden Knights on Wednesday. Manson has appeared in five playoff games, recording two assists, eight SOG, 13 hits, and a plus-one rating.

Colorado Avalanche defenseman Brent Burns (undisclosed) is day-to-day after missing Saturday's practice, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports. The 41-year-old veteran appears banged up, but Colorado won't start the Western Conference Finals until Wednesday night, so Burns still has plenty of time to rest and recover. In nine playoff appearances, Burns has recorded three assists, 14 SOG, six blocks, 13 hits, and a plus-seven rating. He made the biggest impact in Wednesday's series-clinching victory over Minnesota, dishing out two assists.
