On February 26, his 21st birthday, Stankoven scored his first career NHL goal and assist in a 3–2 overtime loss against the New York Islanders.

On March 5, he recorded two goals and two assists in a 7–6 win against the San Jose Sharks.

Stankoven was a member of the Canada national under-18 team in the 2021 IIHF World U18 Championships.

He scored the game-winning goal in Canada's 5–3 victory over Russia in the gold medal game.

Initially named to Canada national junior team for the 2022 World Junior Championships that was scheduled to be played in December 2021 and January 2022, the tournament was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic after Stankoven had played only one game.

However, he rejoined the team when the tournament was rescheduled for the following summer, winning gold.

With four goals and six assists in the seven-game tournament, he was named one of the team's three best players.

On December 12, 2022, Stankoven was again named to Canada national junior team to compete at the 2023 World Junior Championships.

After the team opened the tournament with a loss to the Czech Republic, the forward lines were reorganized with Stankoven centering Connor Bedard and Joshua Roy.

The Bedard/Stankoven/Roy line became the backbone of the team through the rest of the tournament, and the three were named Canada's three best players following the semifinals victory over United States in which they scored four of Canada's six goals.

In the final, Canada defeated the Czech Republic in a rematch, winning their second consecutive gold medal.
