Taking to the Skies with the U SArmy Golden Knights
It's windy. Plan for a longer spot. So build it on the way back if you have to,
all right? Don't get blown out to La La Land. Two minutes.
Go! The Golden Knights were created in 1961. We're the Department of the Army's official
aerial demonstration unit. We perform free-fall parachute jumps, aerial
demonstrations all throughout the country. Let's go! A lot of practice.
A lot of safety measures in place. And not crazy. What we're doing right now is what's called
spotting. We're gonna fly over the target.
And earlier when we dropped those beanies, what we did is we figured out what our drift is going to be. So if our drift is .2 Miles from the target
downwind, then what we're going to do is we're going to fly that same azimuth into the wind
and we're going to pick our exit point to be .2 Miles in front of the target, so then
when we open our parachutes, we'll get blown back to it. Does that make sense? It's windy out there. Cue the music.
As ambassadors to the Army, this team gives
us a really good avenue for the Army to be able to connect with the American public. Stand by. OK. Here we go.
All right, I'm going to give you guys a heads up to what's happening, right now we are seven minutes. Seven minutes and the rest of us are getting out, OK? Fly parachute! Muscle up, bro! Stand by. OK. Ready, set, go.
OK. Ready, set, go..
all right? Don't get blown out to La La Land. Two minutes.

Staying #VegasStrongHome Team Episode 4NowThis
You know, this is a city that has a lot more to it than what meets the eye, what meets
the glitter and the glam and the 4 and a half mile stretch that they have. And Ill tell you this, this city has a lot more to it
and it showed the last couple days. A lot of people say Las Vegas is transient, people dont
know their neighbors, people dont really connect with each other, but to see this happening, so proud of the community. 'Vegas Strong' is the message of the city right now.
And as the citys team, its our responsibility to
reflect whats going on here and to try and and unify people thats what this sport does. So were trying to capture that and
share it with the city for October 10th. Its 58 names and Ive got side notes next to them like some of them if they were there with their daughter,
or who is local and things like that. So, that moment of silence, were
going to acknowledge those that survived and were going to acknowledge
the strength and resiliency during the pre-game show, but, those 58 names in gold on the ice when the house is black and just, you know theres thats the way you honor them.
You just, you got those names and We have a tremendous honor and responsibility to heal Las Vegas which has not been afforded this opportunity because
theyve never had a professional sports team and sports galvanizes and unifies communities
and people in a way that very few things do. Thank you so much, Im so excited to see you guys! Were going around to different locations E.R.S, hotels, and first responders. The people that were affected by this
and were creating an opening for 1010 that is about the city and about how you unify, and about being strong and what needs
to be conveyed that were still together. What happens on the ice is always paramountthats number one and thats exciting and we hope we do our best, but this isnt about sports, this is much bigger.
This is important for this community
and we want to honor this community we want to give them the platform they
deserve to honor and celebrate their heroes. This will be one of the most important
things any of us will ever be a part of, and its a tremendous honor. Its a small town, but people think of it as a big city. We are Vegas! We are Vegas strong.
We are Vegas strong! Everywhere you look, you see people support Vegas strong billboards so you can tell that this city has a ton of support. We share the facilities here at City National Arena its the home training center for our NHL team, but its also the home training center for the UNLV hockey program. Well get on the ice every morning before the Knights
do, so we jump on the ice around 8 o'clock and theyre on the ice now, so its a unique
partnership as far as college hockey goes. Our kids are pretty lucky to be in this environment every single day.
And its just a terrific relationship as we try to
build this great game here in Las Vegas. Were lucky as an organization to be
able to partner with the Knights like that. Obviously it affected everybody in the
community, but it really hit hard with them. I was at home and I had texted a bunch
of people that I knew were at the concert and unfortunately, I didnt get a text back from Nick.
Their assistant coach, Nick Robone was tragically injured. I was there, I was probably 15 yards behind him hes like my right hand man, we do everything together. I wouldnt even call him an assistant coach in my book. I mean, what doesnt he do? Is the question, you know? Like, It was a really long night, hard to fall asleep.
It was hard to wrap your head around
things that didnt really feel real, honestly. Fortunately, hes going to be okay. Hes one of the lucky ones. You know, it really does hit home when it comes that close.
These young guys, they really are Vegas strong. They immediately wanted to get right back on the ice they have a game tomorrow night
against Utah and were real proud of 'em. The first game without him, its going to be rough. You know, Nick and I do everything pre-game together.
We talk everything in between periods, its him and I its been like that for the 3 years weve been together. On behalf of the organization, we wanted to stop down and say hello. We know its been a tough week with your coach, and everything that happened on Sunday night with Nick
and just the unbelievable tragedy that took place, but we as an organization and I
think you guys are really a part of that, we have a unique responsibility now. Because now were a part of recovery.
Stay strong, Vegas is strong and were
behind you every step of the way. [Crowd Cheering] Bare down, that's it. 3 For 3, fellas, build on the positives! You dont know how much it means
to me, Nick, Zee, the rest of the staff, UNLV as a whole, and all the fans there. [Clapping] This is kind of our creative wall of inspiration.
We were planning on leading with our brand first. When you think Vegas, you're like oh youre
going to have slot machines and show girls and" Its like, well, no this is about the community, this is about more than the strip. We want to make sure that the other 2 million
people have their say and their take on this. We are the Knights, we have the shield logo, the face, the V, what does that mean? The Knight is noble, strong, fierce, tough, never retreating.
So, were going to be bringing our
players out of a 25 foot tall helmet, this will be a golden glow on the inside. Its a privilege we have to be a part
of introducing this to these people. And with the events that have happened,
its even more of a responsibility, but we were planning on honoring Vegas anyway now its more important to. Its a wall of inspiration, thats for sure cant wait to see it get activated.

Radek Faksa Hat trick Dallas Stars at Vegas Golden Knights 28 november 2017
Radek, congratulations on your first NHL hat trick, it was amazing, you scored your first goal playing four on four, how did you see it? Sure, we started in the defensive zone, defensemen carried the puck out, I just held on to it, guys did the rest, Hammer drew two guys, I just opened up, he gave it to me and I had an open net, all I had to do was get it to the far post, and I scored, it was a great feeling and important goal. The other two goals, you scored less than thirty seconds before the end of the second period, in a span of few seconds, how did that happen? Hanzal changed because he was injured so I jumped on sooner, with the other guys from the line and I just went to the net and Smitty gave it to me and I just aimed for the near post. It was great to score two goals at the end of the period, then we just defended in the third period, and I think if we play like this in every game, that we play our game for sixty minutes, we can be successful on the road. What does it feel like to finally have that first hat trick? It's great, I didn't expect for it to happen to me because I'd say I'm not a sniper, it's great, you don't forget moments like that and I'll remember it forever.
It was the first time you played in Vegas how do you like Las Vegas, did you spend some time here beforehand? Yeah, we arrived yesterday and actually we already played here last year pre-season with Los Angeles so we already knew the arena and Vegas is a great city, fans were great, so it's great to play here. And you played for one and a half seasons with Cody Eakin, who plays for Vegas now, what can you tell us about him? Eaks is a great guy, great guy in the locker room, on the ice, it's great to have such a guy on the team, a warrior, we miss him here a lot, but there was nothing we could do, that's what it was, there was an expansion and we have to carry on. You guys have a father's trip now, can you describe what it is? It's great to have all the fathers here because they sacrificed a lot for us, when we were little, they took us to practice and sacrificed a lot for us, it cost money and time, it's a thank you, not just to fathers but the whole family, but fathers are usually closer to hockey, it's for sure nice to have some fathers here. It's a holiday season, what's your favorite holiday? For sure Christmas, I like the atmosphere around Christmas, I always enjoy December, little bit of cold and so, even though it's not too cold in Dallas, but when we go somewhere for the game I enjoy the snow, I buy hot chocolate and watch some Czech Christmas movies, so I really enjoy the atmosphere around Christmas.
It was Thanksgiving few days ago, what are you thankful for this year? I'm mostly thankful for my health, that we're all together and all the important things to me. Ok Thank you. Thanks .

No Place Like HomeHome Team Episode 3NowThis
Like all of you, Im proud
to call Las Vegas home. I met my wife here, my kids were born here, You get another boo-boo? [Crying] Where? Just becoming a team is the biggest challenge getting to know everybody. So I think weve had a good transition. Got off to a good start.
They score! Neal! Working on pre-game elements. Are you ready to make some history? Its finally time to play in front of our fans! The home openers going to be a pretty
special moment for me and my family. Weve known Deryk a long time. We had him
in our minor league system in Washington.
Hes really earned his way here
through hard work and toughness. Hes a big, tough guy, but hes a smart player. I would never speak ill of him you know, anywhere, because I know what his job entails. [Announcer] And now were going to have a scrap.
Dont tug on Supermans cape. Hes just a really good hearted person,
but when he gets on the ice, he understands his role and you
want a guy like him on your team. [Announcer] You gotta know your role. Hes a character guy, hes a tough guy, and
hes going to be a stabilizing guy for our group.
Whatre you guys doing down here, shots? Just standing here? Making it look like youre doing something? Hes a presence that you know, as a
forward when you go in the zone and hes a guy that you gotta face, you always
have to make sure of where he is on the ice because he can really hurt you physically
with his body and the way he plays. So, you gotta make sure hes out there and I
think for us, hes a great guy to have on our side. I couldnt be more excited from when they announce the team,
Its kind of in the back of your mind even up in Calgary, you know you
didnt know what could possibly happen. You never knew what was going to happen
with the expansion draft or anything like that, so its always in the back of you mind that
theres a possibility to come and play at home.
I played my first pro career in the east coast here. I met my wife here. From day one, weve spent just about every summer here. Weve been here for fourteen years now.
Just being part of the history of an
expansion team is pretty unique. Not many guys get to say theyre part of that and for it to be at home, its pretty special. Hes all about his daddy. [Baby] Daddy! Hi, bud! Its a yummy dinner! Yeah, its yummy because youre eating pizza.
Deryk Engelland has been awesome.
Everybody goes to him with any questions regarding your house, your kids, hockey stuff it doesnt matter. The guy has been so good to all of us
and I know hes very proud and happy theres a team now in Vegas and hes part of it too. Just getting ready to go swimming right now. Ready for swimming? Where are we going, buddy? Swimming? Okay, head out there.
Okay, buddy. Ready? Whens your guys first game? We play tonight exhibition, but
the first home game is the 10th. Who are you guys playing tonight, Avalanche? Tonight is Avalanche, first game is Phoenix. Alright, bud, we'll be right out here.
Its a really good community people are so nice, we have friends that weve been
friends with since we moved here. Its nice to be home. Are you so happy that daddys playing here now? Yes. Uh oh! Mr.
Concierge, he was the guy that everyone would call before you really knew anybody, hey I dont
know where Im supposed to go for dinner, I dont know where I should buy a house, More wives and girlfriends text her than players did me. So, I think the wives and girlfriends are more organized and want to know things before they get there and guys just get there and wing it from there. Moving is more about just finding your routine. You know, you kind of live in the
same spot, you have a routine down.
He probably couldve started his own concierge business so for us its just anything we had a question, you know, he was the guy that everybody went to. So were lucky to have him around. It gets a little bit better everyday as
youd expect with a group that hasnt known each other prior to coming to this camp. So, we take a baby step everyday and thats all you can ask.
Everyone's new and the chemistry everyone
has were already a tight group in here everyones great to be around and its a lot of fun here. The guys in the room just seem real down to earth all have the same common goal, so its good to see. This is what we need to build a
champion is this kind of foundation. Marc-Andre Fleury is a champion, hes won three Stanley Cups, hes been a great teammate and
great in the community and it's precisely what we want here and his
teammates are going to learn a lot from him.
He's the reason why we have a chance to win every night. Hes one of the good goalies in the league and he proved a lot he's the best player on our team and everybody
should know that were lucky to have him. Nate, just his personality. I mean, the first
time you met him, hes smiling, he's laughing, hes giggling and its all you hear.
I mean, the players really like him. You know, this is a very exciting opportunity for me. First game at T-Mobile, you cant be more excited than this. Hold on.
One minute! You know, we dont have a whole lot of expectations, but we internally as a group do. And thats what I think makes us so unique
and how much fun were going to have this season. 21Here we go, boys! Lets go, Perrone! [Audience cheering] Got home from the game, we were in bed and it was about 12:30. Phones were both on silent, but Melissas
got a couple close friends that called once or twice it goes through, so thats when we kind of found out.
Hes a great guy to have, not only on our
team for leadership and playing ability, but an ambassador for this club hes been great in the community. You guys did the best thing bringing hockey to Vegas. I live here, I lived here for a while so Its wonderful to have you here no less. There you go! It was really cool to be a part of the first game.
We knew we had a good team, we were going
up against a tough opponent in Dallas, so we were jacked up and ready to go. Neal, shot deflect and score! James Neal, first goal in Golden Knights history ties the game! Under 3 minutes to go, Eakin up the middle feeds it to Neal shot score! James Neal from both knees, puts it
over Lehtonen to give Vegas the lead! Ultimately won the game, so loved the effort
from our team and then going into Arizona the next night and doing the same thing was pretty cool. Neil! And the Vegas Golden Knights are 2-0. Coming back 2-0 for our season opener is pretty special.
If you werent aware, tomorrow is our home opener. So yeah! [Clapping] Tomorrow night we're going to introduce
all of our players, but before we introduce them, were going to introduce a first responder,
a nurse, a doctor, all the local heroes and survivors. And then we're going to do a 58 second moment of silence in honor of each of those that passed as part of the tragedy. Were going to have all of their names
projected onto the ice, thats the pre-game ceremony.
And then once we drop the puck, hopefully we can
be a distraction for about two hours and forty minutes for all of the guests that are there. And then we can come away with two more
points and another Golden Knights victory. It's probably going to rival that first game feeling. I mean, not quite there, but its going to be awfully close just to be at home and have the kids
there thats going to be pretty special..
to call Las Vegas home. I met my wife here, my kids were born here, You get another boo-boo? [Crying] Where? Just becoming a team is the biggest challenge getting to know everybody. So I think weve had a good transition. Got off to a good start.
They score! Neal! Working on pre-game elements. Are you ready to make some history? Its finally time to play in front of our fans! The home openers going to be a pretty
special moment for me and my family. Weve known Deryk a long time. We had him
in our minor league system in Washington.
Hes really earned his way here
through hard work and toughness. Hes a big, tough guy, but hes a smart player. I would never speak ill of him you know, anywhere, because I know what his job entails. [Announcer] And now were going to have a scrap.
Dont tug on Supermans cape. Hes just a really good hearted person,
but when he gets on the ice, he understands his role and you
want a guy like him on your team. [Announcer] You gotta know your role. Hes a character guy, hes a tough guy, and
hes going to be a stabilizing guy for our group.
Whatre you guys doing down here, shots? Just standing here? Making it look like youre doing something? Hes a presence that you know, as a
forward when you go in the zone and hes a guy that you gotta face, you always
have to make sure of where he is on the ice because he can really hurt you physically
with his body and the way he plays. So, you gotta make sure hes out there and I
think for us, hes a great guy to have on our side. I couldnt be more excited from when they announce the team,
Its kind of in the back of your mind even up in Calgary, you know you
didnt know what could possibly happen. You never knew what was going to happen
with the expansion draft or anything like that, so its always in the back of you mind that
theres a possibility to come and play at home.
I played my first pro career in the east coast here. I met my wife here. From day one, weve spent just about every summer here. Weve been here for fourteen years now.
Just being part of the history of an
expansion team is pretty unique. Not many guys get to say theyre part of that and for it to be at home, its pretty special. Hes all about his daddy. [Baby] Daddy! Hi, bud! Its a yummy dinner! Yeah, its yummy because youre eating pizza.
Deryk Engelland has been awesome.
Everybody goes to him with any questions regarding your house, your kids, hockey stuff it doesnt matter. The guy has been so good to all of us
and I know hes very proud and happy theres a team now in Vegas and hes part of it too. Just getting ready to go swimming right now. Ready for swimming? Where are we going, buddy? Swimming? Okay, head out there.
Okay, buddy. Ready? Whens your guys first game? We play tonight exhibition, but
the first home game is the 10th. Who are you guys playing tonight, Avalanche? Tonight is Avalanche, first game is Phoenix. Alright, bud, we'll be right out here.
Its a really good community people are so nice, we have friends that weve been
friends with since we moved here. Its nice to be home. Are you so happy that daddys playing here now? Yes. Uh oh! Mr.
Concierge, he was the guy that everyone would call before you really knew anybody, hey I dont
know where Im supposed to go for dinner, I dont know where I should buy a house, More wives and girlfriends text her than players did me. So, I think the wives and girlfriends are more organized and want to know things before they get there and guys just get there and wing it from there. Moving is more about just finding your routine. You know, you kind of live in the
same spot, you have a routine down.
He probably couldve started his own concierge business so for us its just anything we had a question, you know, he was the guy that everybody went to. So were lucky to have him around. It gets a little bit better everyday as
youd expect with a group that hasnt known each other prior to coming to this camp. So, we take a baby step everyday and thats all you can ask.
Everyone's new and the chemistry everyone
has were already a tight group in here everyones great to be around and its a lot of fun here. The guys in the room just seem real down to earth all have the same common goal, so its good to see. This is what we need to build a
champion is this kind of foundation. Marc-Andre Fleury is a champion, hes won three Stanley Cups, hes been a great teammate and
great in the community and it's precisely what we want here and his
teammates are going to learn a lot from him.
He's the reason why we have a chance to win every night. Hes one of the good goalies in the league and he proved a lot he's the best player on our team and everybody
should know that were lucky to have him. Nate, just his personality. I mean, the first
time you met him, hes smiling, he's laughing, hes giggling and its all you hear.
I mean, the players really like him. You know, this is a very exciting opportunity for me. First game at T-Mobile, you cant be more excited than this. Hold on.
One minute! You know, we dont have a whole lot of expectations, but we internally as a group do. And thats what I think makes us so unique
and how much fun were going to have this season. 21Here we go, boys! Lets go, Perrone! [Audience cheering] Got home from the game, we were in bed and it was about 12:30. Phones were both on silent, but Melissas
got a couple close friends that called once or twice it goes through, so thats when we kind of found out.
Hes a great guy to have, not only on our
team for leadership and playing ability, but an ambassador for this club hes been great in the community. You guys did the best thing bringing hockey to Vegas.

NHL 18Franchise Mode TrailerExpansion Draft, Vegas Golden Knights
For the first time since 2000-2001, expansion has made a presence in the NHL. In NHL18's franchise mode, the new expansion draft feature gives you the ability to expand the league even further, and create the 32nd NHL team. Begin by running|an authentic expansion draft where you carefully craft your team through the official protection lists. Once you've finalized your roster, use the updated creation zone customization tools to build your team arena, design your custom mascot and even create your own AHL affiliate.
With more cities to choose from, bring your team to your hometown wherever it is - around the world. And of course, you can choose to play|as your favorite NHL team, and create and submit|an authentic protected player list to ensure your best players stay at home. In addition to the owner goals, player morale and arena management features included in previous years, the long-requested ability|to extend contracts mid-season has been added to NHL 18, meaning you'll need to make critical|decisions throughout the entire season. You'll also find more diverse player ratings, more NHL-ready talent|in the top draft rounds, and for the sharp GMs out there, the ability to find better late round picks.
Expansion has allowed us|to redefine what it means to own|a franchise in the NHL. Through deeper development|and more customizable options, the decisions are truly in your hands..

Mini Baja Golden Knights at Clarkson University
(Rock music) [MAN]: It's definitely a lifestyle, I would say. It doesn't have to be, but we have chosen this life. (Music louder) [MAN]: I remember when
I walked in here for touring, and I saw the Baja car in the shop. I said, "Man, that's what I want to do!" It's really just evolved around
everyone wanting to go driving.
Everyone wanting to go racing. In order to get to that point, you have to build the car first. [MAN]: We've been here since 1978. We're a pretty close-knit group.
We have, you know, a captain and pretty much
a sub-team leader, and everybody else kind of falls in. We're pretty much the biggest team --- the biggest SPEED team ---
here on campus, and we have a lot of members. [MAN]: In the beginning of the year, we start off on the computers and we design every part of it. So, like make sure everything fits, make sure everything
works the way we want it to.
Like then the grease
monkey bash and bang happens later after
everything is designed. [MAN]: Everything except nuts, bolts, shocks, and rims and tires is made by us. We're starting to venture
more into new techniques as far as we're working on
our own CB joints this year. Next year, we'll probably
start getting into our own breaks.
So, master cylinders, calipers... [MAN]: We go to two competitions each year and compete with 140 other teams. Usually, the first competition,
we work out some kinks and stuff. We usually get top 40, and the second competition,
we usually dial it in.
[MAN]: There's obviously
things I wouldn't be able to do if I hadn't learned it in class, but I feel that this is as
valuable as my education. (Music ends).

History in the MakingHome Team Episode 5NowThis
Were all players that come from different teams Its been good. Just stop talking, alright? Whatre you guys doing down here, shots? Are you so happy that daddys playing here now? It was all a dream! Now its real. Hockeys in Vegas. Here we go, boys! Alright.
3, 2, 1. A gunman opened fire at a crowded country
music festival on the Las Vegas strip. Its almost surreal. You all want to be united in times like this.
A knight is noble, strong, fierce, tough. Neal, shot, scores! Coming back 2-0 for our season opener is pretty special. If you werent aware, tomorrow is our home opener. [Clapping] Ah, its a big day.
First home game for our franchise, so a lot of things happening especially with the event on
the first of October, so Im sure its going to be really emotional. We were just doing the strip to show
the kids and my mother in laws in town so we went to that and found
Mandalay Bay and its so sad. All the people there crying and you pass by and see that on your left and
on the right you see the two windows that arent even replaced yet Oh my God, it was heartbreaking to see. That arena is unbelievable.
You think its nice, but when you
actually get there, its beautiful. Alright. The home openers going to be pretty special. Going to practice in the morning
to showing up at the rink and I think they have a gold carpet.
Just to see the atmosphere and the
fans and you know, play for real. Well, the relationship is just starting, its new, its fresh, but you see a lot of people excited
generally excited to have us there. Its going to be a fun year. Were going to do big things, I think
this year, so Its going to be good.
I remember calling my mom and I said, hey, dont take this the wrong way, I love
home. You know, Minnesota's obviously gonna be home, but this place just has a feeling to it it
wasnt like you just got traded to a distant place It just, it felt like you were a part of home and
thats why the last few days have been so hard." Tonight is obviously a momentous
occasion for a brand new team to play its first home game. This team will represent a unification of the city a point of healing, if you will. The importance of the team given what has
happened over the last week is extremely huge I think its brought a lot of people together.
The vibe outside is amazing, its
electric, the vibe inside: same. Everybodys waiting for that puck to drop its going to go crazy. Tonight things are different in tone and appearance. Youre going to notice that the boards
here this evening have no sponsorships just the words Vegas Strong".
And thats been the rallying
cry here over the last several days. And its a concept that has
motivated the Golden Knights as they prepare for tonights opening. Its been an emotional time for the city. You know, weve tried to go in the community and
we try to do little things to brighten the mood, but tonights about us putting some smiles on people's
faces and hopefully we can cap it off with a win.
OK, tonight we know its going to be a
tough opening ceremony, okay? Its going to be tough. Lets make sure after the ceremonys
over, were ready to go, okay? Were supportive, were ready to go. But compete and battle hard, and
lets have a great hockey game tonight and win another by two points, okay? First game at home, lets take care of business tonight. Ready to go, guys, here we go! [Cheering] Hockey team is such a great community
partner and they're bringing everything together for a common support today and thats a wonderful
thing for the city as well as for the hockey team.
Were just going to keep the orchestral going were waiting on players. Players are gathering right now, stand by. Standby network, theyre in the tunnel now. Here we go, boys.
[Announcer] Firefighter, Derek Sutherland [Cheering] [Announcer] Accompanied by number five, Deryk Engelland. The tragedy that happened you never think its
going to happen here at home and for it to happen, its just horrific and your
hearts go out to the families of those 58 victims. [Announcer] These individuals will never be forgotten. May their light long shine.
[Announcer] Ladies and gentleman, Deryk Engelland! Like all of you, Im proud to call Las Vegas home. [Cheering] I met my wife here, my kids were born
here, and I know how special this city is. [Cheering] The team kind of helped me and then my wife cut out
a bunch because she knew I wasnt the greatest speaker. To the families and friends of the victims,
know that well do everything we can to help you and our city heal.
[Cheering] We are Vegas Strong. [Cheering] I think our organization did an exceptional job. I'm really proud of how that went off for us, for our city, for our league, for our country and then to transition into the game [Announcer] And away we go. We couldnt lose this game tonight.
We couldn't. We had to win this game. [Announcer] Vegas coming in having won their first two games. [Announcer] What a great job of puck moving
by the Golden Knights through the neutral zone.
Tomas Nosek has put the Golden Knights on the board. You get that first goal and just to hear that crowd,
you just get that little extra jump in your step. [Announcer] Taken up by Brendan Leipsic. Leipsic dangling looking up top, they score! [Announcer] Its the hometown hero! Come out and get a few quick ones helped
out a lot and just to get the crowd into it, it was amazing to see it.
Stay on top of those pucks in the zone there you guys are way too quick for them. [Announcer] And Neal scores! [Announcer] They score! What start for the Vegas Golden Knights here at home. 4 Goals in the first period, 2 from James Neal. Pretty good speech! I had goosebumps.
I feel like Im a pretty good public
speaker, but I wouldve been nervous. Great start, boys. Were moving our feet, were skating,
we did exactly what we wanted to do. We kept it simple, we put pucks through the net,
thats why we have four goals.
We played the right way. They got one cheap goal back, but we're battling
and playing the right way and continue to play the right way. Dont change a thing, OK? Play our style. We're getting a little softer towards the end, stay focused here.
Dont give em life. [Announcer] Shot! They score! Lindberg! 5-1. [Announcer] Final seconds [Announcer] The Vegas Golden Knights have made NHL history. [Announcer] The first expansion club ever to get to a 3-0 start.
Wooo! Great job, that was moving. It was fantastic. Went a lot better than I was expecting. Werent you a little nervous? Sure.
Ive probably said it a thousand times. Howd the players do tonight? Man were they inspirational, weren't they?
They were fantastic. Thats what makes sports so amazing sometimes, to see a team come out and play like
that, and have this crowd respond It felt like the whole country was behind us. So, were looking at the best start in
the history ofa 100 year history of the NHL for an expansion team.
[Cheering] Unbelievable for a professional sports team to start in a city and do it in the face of the terrible tragedy that we saw here last week in Las Vegas is incredible. The unity, the coming together, in the healing that tonight represented for this city is something you should all be proud of. And we know the best is yet to come. Vegas Strong.
Golden Knights strong. All the success in the world..

Stay on top of those pucks in the zone there you guys are way too quick for them. [Announcer] And Neal scores! [Announcer] They score! What start for the Vegas Golden Knights here at home. 4 Goals in the first period, 2 from James Neal. Pretty good speech! I had goosebumps.
I feel like Im a pretty good public
speaker, but I wouldve been nervous. Great start, boys. Were moving our feet, were skating,
we did exactly what we wanted to do. We kept it simple, we put pucks through the net,
thats why we have four goals.
We played the right way. They got one cheap goal back, but we're battling
and playing the right way and continue to play the right way. Dont change a thing, OK? Play our style. We're getting a little softer towards the end, stay focused here.
Dont give em life. [Announcer] Shot! They score! Lindberg! 5-1. [Announcer] Final seconds [Announcer] The Vegas Golden Knights have made NHL history. [Announcer] The first expansion club ever to get to a 3-0 start.
Wooo! Great job, that was moving. It was fantastic. Went a lot better than I was expecting. Werent you a little nervous? Sure.
Ive probably said it a thousand times. Howd the players do tonight? Man were they inspirational, weren't they?
They were fantastic. Thats what makes sports so amazing sometimes, to see a team come out and play like
that, and have this crowd respond It felt like the whole country was behind us. So, were looking at the best start in
the history ofa 100 year history of the NHL for an expansion team.
[Cheering] Unbelievable for a professional sports team to start in a city and do it in the face of the terrible tragedy that we saw here last week in Las Vegas is incredible. The unity, the coming together, in the healing that tonight represented for this city is something you should all be proud of. And we know the best is yet to come. Vegas Strong.
Golden Knights strong. All the success in the world..

Golden Knights show off their jump skills in Iwakuni for Friendship Day
The US Army Golden Knights Parachute Team
dove onto Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni to show off their jumping skills and build
upon the U.S.-Japan relationship during the 41st Friendship Day. The mission of the United States Army Parachute
Team is connecting Americas Army with the public whether thats domestic audience
or an international audience. The team saw Iwakunis air show as a perfect
opportunity to demonstrate their capabilities and show the community what it means to be
Army Strong. Theres a long history of relations with
the Japanese public here so its really nice to be able to come out here.
And were possibly interacting with people
that maybe have never met an American before and most likely havent seen us jumping
in before. Both days here, yesterday in the practice
and today, they both went really really well. We had everybody execute their maneuvers as
we were supposed to and we all landed back in the target area. Golden signifies the gold medals the
team has won and Knights alludes to the teams ambition to conquer the skies.

Golden Knights demo team
[Techno music playing] [gun firing] This is the Army Today. It takes hundreds of jumps and hours of training for The Golden Knights to perfect their performances. I'm Jini Ryan. We do 8-man formation free fall and we exit the aircraft at 13,500 feet.
Basically, as soon as we come out the door, the time starts and we have 50 seconds to perform as many different geometric formations as possible. Each one has its own set purpose in the skydive and basically they're all to kind of jam you up and it's all basically about engineering and working through a problem together. I know when the guys are given the count, and as they leave, I kind of leave a split second right behind them. My job is pretty much just to sit up above the formation and just to capture all the formations that they do.
[Steve Miller Band's "Fly Like an Eagle" playing] There are a possibility of, I think, 2 million different combinations of all the formations that we do. And so we can make thousands of jumps and still not see each of the combinations every time. The teams do at least 10 jumps a day, perfecting their maneuvers and making sure they have pinpoint precision every time they jump out of that perfectly good airplane. [] The formations move and you can kind of feel the variable from their wind and whatever way they're moving.
So it's almost like when you used to play hot potato with your brothers or sisters and it's like something's kind of jumpy. I'm doing a lot of like, "It's a hot potato, hot potato." But it's very awesome. [] I started skydiving well before I came to the team and this is the premiere parachute team in the world, not only for competitions but demonstrations as well. And I will say it's a very humbling and honorable experience to be here.

Golden Knights 50th Anniversary
Jumping into 50. The U.S. Army Parachute Team, The Golden Knights, is celebrating its golden anniversary. Jini Ryan takes a look at 50 years of jumping out of that perfectly good airplane.
[Ominous music playing] It really shows what Army strong is all about. All the NCOs and all the officers that work on the team work together-- --and we go out there and represent the men and women in the armed forces as well as the Army. [Tom Petty's "Learning to Fly" playing] We really try to put on the best parachute demonstration out there to represent the men and women who are stationed abroad-- --as well as in CONUS to show the American public that the military has a lot to offer. [Tom Petty's "Learning to Fly" playing] Initially, the team was started back in 1959 as a STRAC parachute team to compete against the Soviet Bloc countries-- --because they had been dominating the skydiving world and we hadn't been doing very well.
[Tom Petty's "Free Falling" playing] Three years after they were formed, the team became known as The Golden Knights-- --a name that has come to symbolize a unit that brings home the gold by conquering the skies. [Fast rock song playing] Our mission has changed a little bit, but it's stayed mostly the same-- --and some of the things that we've accomplished is the whole transition and equipment. [Band playing march] There used to be round parachutes where you didn't have very much control-- --transitioning to square ram-air canopies where you can land it almost wherever you want whenever you want. [Van Halen's "Jump" playing] The next 50 years is going to be so much different.
Parachuting concepts are going to be changing-- --and we're going to have different planes. Another 50 years--it's going to be great and hopefully I'll be around to see what the team has been-- --and talk about where I was for 8 years. So I'm really looking forward to the next 50 years and what the team has to offer the United States and foreign countries. [Van Halen's "Jump" playing] Oh, how cute! He's not cute.
He's an 82nd Airborne Paratrooper. Oh, got it. So would you ever jump out of an airplane? Actually, I wouldn't mind jumping out of an airplane. Me? I'm not jumping out unless I'm pushed out.
Well, that can be arranged. >>No..

Golden Knights 4, Blackhawks 2 3 Takeaways
Golden Knights 4, Blackhawks 2: 3 Takeaways There was a bit of a wince when Chicagos John Hayden scored a shorthanded goal 3:33 into the first period. Oh no, was the thought you could feel in T-Mobile Arena. Sure, the Golden Knights hot start has been fun. But now, this was it.
Chicago Blackhawks in town, third string goalie in goal, down 1-0 less than four minutes into the game. Surely, this would be when the Golden Knights began to fall apart. The Golden Knights rode four unanswered goals and survived a late comeback attempt to stun the Blackhawks, 4-2, to improve to 7-1-0. Seven.
One. And. Thats the Golden Knights right now. Here are three immediate takeaways from tonights game.
Nobody gave the Golden Knights a chance to win tonight. NOBODY!. After all, Vegas was already 6-1-0 entering the night. How much more could this team, picked by many experts to finish in last place, continue to push its luck?.
Especially after Malcolm Subban went down to injury on Saturday and joined Marc-Andre Fleury on IR, forcing the Golden Knights to give minor leaguer Oscar Dansk his first NHL start. Against the high-flying Chicago Blackhawks, nonetheless. Surely, this would be when the Golden Knights carriage turned into a pumpkin, right?. Wrong!.
Despite every category on paper seeming to favor the Blackhawks, the Golden Knights stood firm. Not only did Vegas win 4-2, it also finished with a 33-31 shot advantage. So this wasnt like Saturday, when the Golden Knights were overwhelmed by the St. Louis Blues and squeaked out a win anyway.
This was a Vegas team missing its top two goalies going against a team with three Stanley Cups in the last seven years. And this was the Golden Knights winning anyway. At 7-1-0, Vegas continues to smash the record book for best start ever by an expansion team. Dansk did what he had to do.
Yes, a minor leaguer goalie emerging to defeat the Chicago Blackhawks in his first NHL start, while surrendering only two goals, is outstanding. But it isnt as if Chicago peppered Dansk all night. He finished with 29 saves, and survived a late Blackhawks flurry. But really, Dansk was good, but not great.
Although on a night the Golden Knights outplayed the Blackhawks was all Vegas needed from him. Dansk now has a .929 Save percentage and is 2-0-0 in his NHL career, with his wins coming against conference powers St. They often say that your best players have to be your best players if you want to have success. For Vegas, however, it was the teams role players that carried the load.
Sure, Jonathan Marchessault, who returned from IR, scored the goal that upped the Golden Knights lead to 4-1. And William Karlsson, who scored the overtime winner on Saturday against St. Louis, also had a goal. But the most dominant line for the Golden Knights was the teams fourth line of William Carrier, Pierre-Edouard Bellemare and Tomas Nosek.
This trio combined for two of the four goals. Nosek had a goal and an assist, and Bellemare scored the game-winning goal. Carriers assist was his first point with the team. In fact, Carriers assist gives the Golden Knights 21 players with at least one point this season, which is more than any team in the league.
On a night the Golden Knights beat a star-laden Blackhawks team, its best players were its role players. And that sure says something about the depth the Vegas has, which almost makes this shocking 7-1-0 start less unexpected than it should be..

guys downtown? Theres a shooting going on.' We have an active shooter inside the fairgrounds. [Gunshots] I told Perry like, do you mind coming back home<font size doesnt really affect him as you see him finishing hits.
We won a championship together this summer
in a charity tournament, so we got clothes that way. We got some shrimps, well get some
veggies, sweet potato, and some ribeyes. Thats the only steak I always eat. Its the best one, ribeyes.
I like my ribeye the night before a game. Its a ritual, I need it, so I cook that really good. Hes burnt the steaks the last three
times so well see how its going to go today That's a lie. [Laughing] Thats for you.
It feels like theyre an old couple already. Its a little weird. [Laughing] Theres probably three percent over
there three percent speaking English. Just stop talking okay? [Laughing] Youre only digging a hole for yourself there And youre in there.
Theyre both from Quebec, right? So they
both played in the Quebec major junior hockey league. So theres a little bit of chemistry that way. Those two guys I met this summer we were
on the same flight over from Vegas to Montreal. What do you mean, is it a sport,' of course its a sport.
Is it in the Olympics? [Laughing] Whats wrong with you? Since then Marches family isnt in yet,
so they spend a lot of time together. Marches having a tough go against me,
he cant deal with it the right way. Losing in golf, losing in cards. [Laughing] I dont have my clubs yet! Im playing with his clubs theyre antiques, hes had them for ten years.
And people wonder why we have a bad
reputation, French guys, guys like him. 3...2...1...Go. It was a really weird path for me as an 18 year-old, I didnt get drafted in the NHL. I got drafted the next year as a 19 year-old in the first round.
St. Louis Blues select from Lewiston of the
Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, David Perron. I was pretty proud of that it doesnt happen often that<font

It's-- it's there. Our season ticket base
is probably in the top five in the NHL already. Living in Vegas
for all these years... Would you ever have really
thought that tonight was a reality? That you'd see
a pro-sports team, and, oh, by the way
you happen to own it? -(LAUGHING)
-Whoa! Well, we always--
we always hoped -that that would happen.
-Yeah.
But nobody ever got it done. KREMER:<i> While the Maloofs have

pro-sports home to Vegas.</I> <i>Tonight, they finally succeeded.</I> You guys have owned teams
before, but how different is it with this team since it's

-Maybe, who knows? -ANDREA: Maybe?
-Might get a little big. Do you feel the
historical nature tonight? -Historic, historic.

happen because..."

'Are Pro Sports in Vegas a Gamble' PreviewReal Sports w Bryant GumbelHBO
ANDREA KREMER:<i> Last month,
with the Vegas strip</i> <i> in full view,</i> <i> the NFL broke ground
on a stadium,</i> <i> which will soon become home
to the Oakland Raiders.</I> <i> Then, surrounded by casinos,</i> <i> major sports made
its official Vegas debut...</I> -(CROWD CHEERING)
-ANNOUNCER:<i> These...</I> <i> are your...</I> <i> Vegas Knights!</I> KREMER:<i> ...When the NHL's
newest expansion team,</i> <i> the Vegas Golden Knights,
took the ice.</I> (CROWD CHEERING) The hypocrisy... Is...
Just so overwhelming. They say because we have
the Giants and the Jets and the Devils, that somehow,
we shouldn't be allowed to have gambling here, 'cause somehow it will threaten
the integrity of the game. Well, ya kidding? How isn't it threatening
the integrity of the game in Las Vegas for the NHL
and the NFL? If you want to sit...
In your ivory tower...
And pontificate
about the integrity of your beloved game, why would you put
one of your franchises within walking distance
of several sports books? Answer me that question,
Mr. Goodell. Game fixing and point shaving. Are they realities,
especially in 2017? Uh, is this LeBron James? Yeah.
Uh, listen this is Mr. X, and... And I'd like you
to shave a few points tonight for the Ca-- You need a billion? Oh, okay thanks. Not gonna happen
with a professional athlete.
Those guys are untouchable. Forget about it.
Not gonna happen. But according to the leagues,
just the perception-- They're livin' in the dark ages
my dear, they're livin' in the dark ages. Time for 'em to come out..
