Just like with the Seattle list this one was a little bit harder to put together because Vegas is still fairly new compared to the other teams in the league. With the Kraken I decided to make a list of just 10 players as a compromise. Since the Golden Knights have been around a little longer there a few more players to choose from but a list of 20 like with the other teams was still kind of hard to make. So, I’ve decided to go with a list of 15 players for them. Still, just like with the Kraken these players might not feel as « unusual » as with the other teams on the whole because it’s not too difficult to remember most of the players from the team’s history. Hopefully people enjoy the list all the same.
Luca Sbisa is still that random prospect we added in the Pronger trade to me, any time I see him I get such whiplash especially seeing he played in 2017

Wasn’t expecting to see NHL 13 legend Sven Baertschi on this list.

A lot of these don’t seem weird to me.

Sbisa made the only classic expansion team plays in the finals by turning the puck over twice and failing to pick up Lars Eller in a 20 second span.

I thought since they were so recent I wouldn’t be surprised by these but wow I have no memory of Nick Cousins being a Golden Knight

Fuck Nick Cousins.
But also, Brossoit is a fucking stud.

David Perron is something. Dude is out there just living the dream.

Where’s Vegas Golden Knights legend Vadim Shipyshev?
Also, Jason Garrison took the ceremonial faceoff for their home opener, probably the most notable thing he did with them.

Tomas Jurco being on Vegas doesn’t surprise me, but for some reason I thought he played there in their first two seasons

That’s 3x Stanley Cup Champion, Blue Jacket Legend, Jonathan Quick!!

Nick Suzuki, 2 preseason games, 2018-19
Pour Quick, went from a King to a Knight to a Ranger, might end his career as a peasant
Vegas’s Charcoal Jerseys > Gold Jerseys
Ex Canucks Legends, Luca Sbisa, Sven Baertschi
and Jason Garrison.
Current Canucks Legend, Teddy Blueger
Almost Canucks Legend, Phil the thrill Kessel
Sbisa and Cousins couple old Flyers logging some ice time
Neal was most memorable on the knights to me
I totally forgot Janmark was on VGK
What if Perron was named Don Perron? Best player in the league?
That’s Columbus Blue Jackets legend Jonathan Quick to you!
Jason Garrison? I thought he was out of the league by that time!
