Start off your morning by reading up on some news and notes from Vegas and around the NHL.

Let’s go over some news and notes:

- There are a ton of worthy candidates to take over as the Golden Knights’ next head coach, but three stand out above the rest. [Knights On Ice]

- When the Knights do hire a new head coach, though, they’ll be tasked with meeting sky-high expectations right out of the gate, which is obviously daunting. [The Athletic]

- Everyone makes fun of teams that fail to make the playoffs for relegating to playing golf all summer. Well, the Knights are playing golf, but for a pretty good cause.

In other news...

- Our old friend Gerard Gallant is once again up for the Jack Adams Award as the NHL’s best coach. Good for him! [ESPN]
