The events that occurred this week in Las Vegas were nothing short of horrifying. A town known for its laid back, fun atmosphere has suddenly been crippled indefinitely by a tragedy unparalleled in United States history.
While the Vegas Golden Knights have become somewhat of an afterthought for most Las Vegans in what is normally a busy week for the NHL, they’ve wasted no time trying to make a difference for those impacted by this disaster.
On Tuesday, the Golden Knights announced they had partnered up with the NHL to make a $300,000 joint donation to the victims of the Las Vegas shootings.
Along with the donation, all 31 NHL teams will honor those whose lives were lost in the tragedy.
