Hockey Fights Cancer Knight

The Vegas Golden Knights celebrated their annual Hockey Fights Cancer Knight on Saturday when they took on the Utah Hockey Club. The team honored special guests who are fighting or who have overcome cancer.

The team also auctioned off specialty Hockey Fights Cancer jerseys with a portion of the proceeds benefitting two local organizations: Cure 4 The Kids and its “End of Treatment Bell” and Zo’s Bravehearts Foundation.
