On Jan. 30, the Vegas Golden Knights hosted its first ever Asian American and Pacific Islander Knight as they took on the Columbus Blue Jackets at T-Mobile Arena.

AAPI Knight was a more inclusive expansion of the team’s previous Lunar New Year theme nights. 2025 is the year of the snake, so Chance’s head can be seen on a snake throughout posters and team gear.

The Lohan School of Shaolin joined VGK cast in the March to the Fortress and performed with Chinese dragons before the fortress officially opened.
