Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. HORSFORD. Madam Speaker, Go Knights Go. This is a great morning in Las Vegas as we celebrate the first-ever Stanley Cup in Nevada.

Our champions, the Las Vegas Golden Knights have truly entered their golden age.

Madam Speaker, our Knights played 82 games this season and won 51-- their best season in franchise history. In their 6 years, they have blazed into NHL history and energized their fans in Nevada and across the Nation.

I would especially recognize Team Captain Mark Stone and Head Coach Bruce Cassidy, who celebrates 1 year on the job today.

Of course, congratulations go to the MVP and winner of the Conn Smythe Trophy, an original Golden Knight, Jonathan Marchessault.

Madam Speaker, Nevadans are beaming with pride over our Stanley Cup champions today. I know that glow will be with us for the weeks and months and years to come.

I look forward to getting back to the district and celebrating our NHL champions. Go Knights Go.
