The Wings won the game by shootout, 3-2, but we still had a great time seeing live hockey in the Joe one last time!

Sin City hosts the Crew in their inaugural season

Washington Capitals at Vegas Golden Knights
December 23, 2017 | T-Mobile Arena | Las Vegas, Nevada

Las Vegas is filled to the brim with distractions, but it’s the last place anyone expected to find an NHL franchise. The city, which has been starved for a professional sports team, has fully embraced the Golden Knights.

The Caps’ first visit to the Entertainment Capital of the World was a unique experience for the Crew. We visited a Knights practice to let Nate Schmidt know we miss him, we gathered for a viewing party to watch the Caps take on the Coyotes, and our happy hour meet up before the Golden Knights game monopolized a local watering hole.

We’ve compiled our experiences into separate photo sections due to the sheer volume of pictures we received from our Roadies. Click on a title below to visit the gallery for each section.
