NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman has praised the Las Vegas Golden Knights for their successful 10th season. The Knights have been in the playoffs for an eighth time in nine seasons and have two trips to the Stanley Cup Finals and one championship. Bettman stated that it was gratifying to see a market that some were critical or skeptical about when the team was announced. The Golden Knights' success has given Las Vegas an identity beyond the Strip, and while there are other franchises coming, Bettman said they have a loyal fan base that started on Day 1.
