I want to give you guys a gift. It's the gift of attending a Vegas Golden Knights practice at City National Arena and the whole experience involved. First, I want to tell you that my first go-round was a fruitful experience.
Obviously, the Golden Knights are practicing in all their expansion team glory. The boys are preparing for a Stanley Cup run and are hoping to reclaim their prize from 2023. The journey starts at City National Arena, where the gang preps for the season's long haul.
With this gift, I want to tell you about the wonderful practice facility based in Summerlin, Nevada. It might be in a more boujee part of town. However, it's still a fun facility to check out.
So, let's honor the first-timers with a little breakdown. Here's what you can expect when you're attending a team practice.
What you should see at City National Arena for a Vegas Golden Knights practice
Obviously, you want to go to City National Arena for a Vegas Golden Knights practice. If you're going there for anything else other than hockey, what are you really doing with your life? It's like a burger without the beef patty. It'll leave you asking...
Of course, you're also going there for more than mere vibes, too. You want to see how the new guy is doing or who's on the ice. Is the injured superstar coming back? Who's stepping in to take his spot? That's what makes being a hockey fans, specifically a Golden Knights fan, fun.
There's also the Arsenal, where you can get the best Golden Knights gear around. They always have the newest players' jerseys in stock, along with miniature jerseys for your babies and the furbabies! There are even pucks and hats to check out, so definitely check this out.
Finally, I went to Mackenzie River Pizza when I went to City National Arena. Granted, this was before I went to my first Golden Knights practice. However, I had to try the pizza there. It was a buffalo chicken pizza and it was GOOD. Like, who would've thought to make celery work on a pizza? Believe it or not, it goes well with buffalo chicken.
You can also grab a pair of skates and skate with your family or friends whenever an open skate is available. For more information, click here.
I highly recommend checking out a Golden Knights practice once in your life. You'll meet amazing people and fill up on terrific food in the process. After all, those two things (along with hockey, of course) are the essence of life.
Also, please be courteous and kind. We don't want to see people making a scene to where we lose all of this.
