What do you think about their jerseys?I think they're beautiful

[Snowball]

I don't like the name or the jerseys.

[El Nino]

Dumb name, worse sweaters. Adidas fukked up the Wild's sweaters too. Those green ones were the best thing since the Christmas NJ Devils

[juicername]

How do you start a thread like this without including an image of the jerseys?

[Otters27]

Haha. Need picture. I think I will like them given the colors

[TheMoneyShot]

Still would love to see how they manage to keep the ice smooth with hot temps outside.

Ask the coyotes.

Sweater looks like trouble

[Regul8er]

I will tell you, they have assembled a heck of a roster through the expansion draft. Don't see how this team isn't competing for a playoff spot.

[Seaweed]

Love the sweater

Very unique and clean

Has a militaristic feel to it

Name was supposed to be black knights but cause of copyright wasnt

What?
One of the worst rosters in modern times.

As a fan and local, we're fine with it.
Haven't heard asny complaints, yet

um....ya, no

[Regul8er]

Clearly guys in this thread that don't know their hockey.

Solid between the pipes...outstanding defense, I mean their top 6 D will be stout. They have some super skilled forwards, who are young, and haven't had big roles yet in the NHL. Jason Garrison and Marc Methot are both studs.

I'll pull this thread up in about 9 months. To say one of the worst rosters in modern time is just asinine!

[lakerboy]

Yeah it's the best roster every assembled by an expansion team.

[Russian Rocket]

Chemistry is important in hockey. The roster doesn't look that bad, but whether or not these guys can play well on the same line with each other, remains to be seen.


ps:btw Their jerseys blow! I think it's always a bad idea, when they try to add gold or tan colors to the uniforms.

I agree. I will be at the historic home opener it will be a great time for Las Vegas

[lakerboy]

Should have sent the penguins in for the home opener

[MoneyLineDawg]

Team will be terrible year one....where's the firepower compared to other teams around the league who all have 3+ better options to score and make plays?

They might grind out a few games but overall can't see them competing

NHL grinder league. Vegas led by grinder gallant

[Jayvegas420]

Good draft, even better trades.
Great pick up between the pipes.
They may finish last but this was a good expansion draft by recent standards.

TMS....
I believe the games will be played indoors.

[DrunkHorseplayer]

They shouldn't be too bad; each team could only protect eight players. That's ridiculously favorable for an expansion team.

[Stallion]

The jersey's are terrible. The whole expansion draft, protecting players was a joke!!! They are an expansion team they are suppose to suck.

[El Nino]

Yeah it's the best roster every assembled by an expansion team.

MN Wild made it to the Western Conference Final in their 3rd season. Vegas will be lucky to finish above 3rd worst in the Western Conference. If they are smart, they trade the older guys and load up on draft picks. They avoided taking Raanta, Dumba, and some of the better players.

[jjgold]

THis team might be decent
Good uniforms

[BigdaddyQH]

The team will do all right, but has zero chance of making the playoff. They are in the West, where both Winnipeg and Los Angeles finished over .500 and did not make the playoffs. It took 94 points to make the playoffs in the past season and this team is nowheres near a 94 point team. As far as the uniforms go, they will be gone in two years.

[reesp18]

Interesting picks for the team, i wanna see what their style will be. Good goaltending though. As an Avalanche fan, I'm pretty sure we'll be competing with Vegas for last place. I do like the uniforms for the Golden Knights, different from most teams, except similar with Ottawa's jerseys.

[Nitrogen]

They'll be terrible. No way they'll grind their way anywhere but the bottom of the division and league.

Great goalies on bad teams turn into bad goalies by Xmas.

[physed]

Too bland

[grease lightnin]

Underwhelming, just like your threads, seaweed

[Nitrogen]

Chemistry is important in hockey. The roster doesn't look that bad, but whether or not these guys can play well on the same line with each other, remains to be seen.

Chemistry tends to be more pronounced in the playoffs when role players step up and catch other teams off guard etc.

Vegas, through no fault of their own, have no depth. They may be able to ice a decent 1st line with some familiar names, but once that line gets matched up against a shutdown line, look at lines 2-4 or D-Men 3-4-5-6.

Pickard can't be thrilled. Goes from being a target in net for Avs games, to having a new franchise rely on him to try and keep them competitive.

Maybe I'm wrong, but this isn't like one game where anything can happen. Over the grind of 82 games, when injuries kick in, teams are (in my opinion) going to feast on these guys as their weaknesses and lack of depth get exploited.

[xKMACKx]

I like the white jerseys, the dark look like Team Germany.

[Kermit]

I like the helmet logo.

[Jayvegas420]

It's a spartan Helmut. On a knights jersey
