Knight Monsters to be affiliated with Vegas, Henderson

STATELINE, Nev. — The Tahoe Knight Monsters announced the club has entered an affiliation agreement with the National Hockey League’s Vegas Golden Knights and the American Hockey League’s Henderson Silver Knights.  

“We are very proud to be a part of the Golden Knights and Silver Knights families,” Knight Monsters Co-Owner David Hodges said. “Hockey in Nevada has continued to grow over the last seven-plus years and we’re excited to get going in late October.”

The Golden Knights were founded as an expansion franchise in 2017 and have qualified for the Stanley Cup Playoffs in six of seven seasons of existence. Vegas captured their first Stanley Cup in franchise history in 2022-23; they’ve won three Pacific Division titles and two Western Conference championships.

“Two critical goals in our organization are to develop strong hockey players and grow the game of hockey in Nevada,” said Golden Knights General Manager Kelly McCrimmon. “Our new partnership with Tahoe ensures that our prospects will progress in a first-class environment, and our Hockey Operations personnel will work with a great business staff to bring an exciting product to a new fanbase. We are very pleased to welcome the Knight Monsters here to Nevada.”

The Silver Knights began play in the AHL in 2020 and have appeared in the Calder Cup Playoffs in one of their four seasons.

“I’m grateful to be part of the Tahoe Knight Monsters where we hope fans and families can create memories for years to come,” Knight Monsters Co-Owner Tim Tebow said. “I love that sports can bring people together from all over to enjoy camaraderie, competition, and community impact.“
