r/goldenknights

Vegas has a thin system, led by Juho Piiparinen, Trevor Connelly and Jakob Ihs-Wozniak. Overall, given how few picks the Golden Knights have made in recent years, they only have a handful of players who translate as legitimate options for them at the next level.

2025 ranking: 30

2026 NHL Draft grade: C-

RotoWire's Coach Pressure Index is out and Craig debuts at #3 in the league, right behind Hiller and Babcock. Their point is basically that an org willing to fire a Cup-winning coach isn't going to give a first-timer a long runway, especially coming off a Final loss.

Fair assessment for a rookie HC in this market, or too harsh this early?

What are the words about that in Vegas? I wonder if he could come back eventually near the end of the season or at the beginning of the next one. I might pick him up in Fantasy hockey, and put him on IR. What do you think?

Hey, I usually just lurk and comment occasionally but I was curious about this. Does Vegas still do Pride Night? I know they did but idk if they still do. Any information would be appreciated! 😊

Edit: Thank you to everyone who responded minus that one guy! Hopefully they’ll have it this year!

Apologies as I know this is an incredibly noob post but I want to get the most out of this visit!

I'm posting out of sheer excitement - just bought my ticket for the pre-season vs Utah Sep 24th! I wish I could have extended to attend to the actual game on the Tuesday but....baby steps!

This will be my first time seeing them live, first time at T-mobile + first pre-season game attended! I live in Toronto + tickets up here are stupid expensive so very happy to have this opportunity!

I'm going solo, in section 6 closer to the front. I understand this grants access to the "Ghost Bar" which is basically an entry way into my section with additional seating, bar + washrooms (?).

I've googled so much and I think I'm just hitting a roundabout as I might not be using the proper words. Have a few questions:

• Is everything still open since it's a pre-season game (concessions + merch)
• Is there anything I'm missing about the Ghost Bar 'perk'?
• Is it worth it to walk around the arena prior to the game? Is there memorabilia on display or any area that's a must check-out?
• will there be the opening "ceremony" or similar since it's pre-season?
• Are jerseys typically still available to buy or are they likely scooped up by now since the home opening is days after?
• I'm a sucker for hotdogs - who serves your fav?
• anything else you can throw at me?

Much appreciated!

I assume that it will be similar to Cassidy's since he was the AHL coach under Bruce's tenure or do you think he will try to copy what Torts did during the playoffs?

Any recommendations on a good and safe on-line site for selling my VGK jerseys and other merchandise? One jersey in particular is worth a little extra. TIA.

Ok, heading back to Vegas and thought I would ask how to get tickets for a game end of Oct.

Been a fan since 2017 when i first visited that Nov and was in Vegas in Vegas 2018 when we make the first Stanley Cup playoffs. Just haven’t as yet managed to get to a game.

So what’s the best way without this costing a huge amount 😂
