Bill Daly: NHL doesn't request Vegas betting ban on Golden Knights

The NHL did not request for Vegas Golden Knights games to be removed from Nevada's legal sportsbooks, deputy commissioner Bill Daly told ESPN on Wednesday.

The league had 30 days before an event to make the official request to the Nevada Gaming Commission; the Golden Knights open their inaugural season on Oct. 6 against Dallas. The Golden Knights are currently +220 underdogs against the Dallas Stars at the Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas.

"What we're most interested in is making sure we get equitable treatment with the NFL in terms of how teams are dealt with on the book," Daley told ESPN.
