The Vegas Golden Knights As... Players in the Super Bowl

We have our Super Bowl matchup, with the "Big Game" set in... Las Vegas. Chiefs vs. 49ers will be the matchup. Let's have a little fun and compare some Golden Knights to some Super Bowl players.

For Jack Eichel, the comparison here is fairly obvious. He's the face of the franchise, offensively skilled in every way, and is arguably the most important asset on the Vegas Golden Knights. He's the MVP for Vegas the same way this quarterback is routinely the MVP of the NFL.

In one of my previous articles, I compared the Golden Knights to the Kansas City Chiefs. Both teams revolve around a focal point on their teams, where they are the running engine. Therefore, you can't go wrong with comparing Eichel to Patrick Mahomes. Both are clutch in the playoffs and bring out the best in their respective teams. The one difference is Eichel doesn't sound like Kermit the Frog like Mahomes.
