All four coaches in Brind’Amour, Bednar, DeBoer, and Brunette hold the highest winning percentages with each of their respective teams per division. The Golden Knights currently have a winning percentage of .618% and a record of 23-14-1.

Fittingly, DeBoer will get the opportunity to coach in his home rink of T-Mobile Arena as the 2022 NHL All-Star Weekend will take place in Las Vegas, Nevada from February 4-5th. You can vote-in other members of the Golden Knights to the All-Star Game through the NHL All-Star Fan Vote.

Chandler Stephenson, Mark Stone, Alex Pietrangelo, Max Pacioretty, and Reilly Smith are all up for the captaincy for the Pacific Division. However, you can write-in whichever candidate you want.
