The Golden Knights have broken tradition for their players with a move that has been hotly debated.

Knights Engrave Cup Before Players Day

The Vegas Golden Knights are not your traditional hockey market or hockey team. Despite this, the city of Vegas has shown massive support for the Golden Knights. With the city coming out in droves to support the team, the Golden Knights went all of the way and won the Stanley Cup.

It was announced today that the Golden Knights have decided to engrave the Stanley Cup before the players days.

They have become the first team to do this. This is a nice tradition for the players as they will be able to see their names on the cup during their day with it. Previously, they would not be able to see their name on the cup unless they had won it before.

As seen on Blade of Steel - The Vegas Golden Knights start a new tradition with the Stanley Cup
