On Tuesday night, the Vegas Golden Knights played their first game on home ice in franchise history, and they did so with a 2-0 record going into the game.
After honouring the first responders from the tragic shooting in Vegas and honouring the victims of the tragedy, the puck was dropped for the first time in Las Vegas.
