Stone finished with a goal and an assist; he leads the NHL with seven points (two goals, five assists) through four games and is the fourth player in NHL history to score a point on the winning goal in each game of a team's 4-0-0 start (Jean Beliveau, Montreal Canadiens in 1970-71, Pat Verbeek, Dallas Stars in 1996-97 and Radek Bonk, Ottawa Senators in 1999-2000).
Kessel scored at 7:38 for the 5-2 final.
"It's a great start," Stone said. "When we looked at the schedule, we had the opportunity to have a great start with four games at home. We haven't quite played our best hockey. Tonight was our best, but the first three games we kind of eased into it a little bit; a little bit of exhibition-style hockey, getting the kinks out.
"I think we're playing really well right now. For sure, good to start off with four big wins. Now it's about getting better every day."
