Prague, Czech Republic

The Golden Knights don't have as many superstars from the Czech Republic as they do from Sweden. However, a big name was recently acquired by the team. His name is Tomas Hertl and he came from the San Jose Sharks in a trade. The native of Prague isn't the only player from the Golden Knights organization to come from the Czech Republic, though.

There's also Matyas Sapovaliv, who's a budding prospect within Vegas's farm system. Like Hertl, Sapovaliv also comes from Prague. He's been a successful player in the amateur ranks, winning the Memorial Cup with the Saginaw Spirit. Hertl won't be the only Czech Republic star that'll help Vegas in the future.

If Vegas does play in this wonderful country, the arena would be the O2 Arena. The venue will host two games between the Devils and Sabres, drawing international interest from within the country. Considering the Czech Republic won the 2024 IIHF World Championship (their seventh), it would be a nice trip for Golden Knights fans to check out.
