Daily Nuggets: Welcome Raiders Fans! (2023)

On behalf of all media that cover the Vegas Golden Knights, we would like to welcome Las Vegas Raiders fans to check out our content for the third straight season, as the Raiders were eliminated from playoff contention yesterday.

We're not even halfway through the NHL season, so strap in for tons more coverage from the actual best professional sports team in Las Vegas.

If you are a Raiders fan looking to get into the greatest sport on planet Earth. Here's a quick couple-sentence recap on the state of the VGK.

The Golden Knights are coming off a rough 2021-22 season where injuries and a lack of consistency resulted in them missing the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time in franchise history. New head coach Bruce Cassidy was brought in, Max Pacioretty was traded, and Robin Lehner was announced to be out for the season in the summer. The VGK started the season strong, going 13-2 and having a nine-game winning streak. They have evened off lately with injuries adding up yet again, but they still sit atop the Pacific Division standings. Mark Stone and Chandler Stephenson have essentially been carrying the team lately.

The Golden Knights will play the defending Stanley Cup Champion Colorado Avalanche today on the road at 6:00 p.m.
