Have you ever worked so hard for something in your life that you craved the rewards afterwards? That's the case for Cole Reinhardt, who made the Opening Night roster for the Vegas Golden Knights. Kelly McCrimmon made the announcement on Sunday at VGK Fan Fest.
This comes from Reinhardt signing a two-year contract with a $812,500 cap hit over the summer. Last season, he scored a goal and an assist in 17 games with the Ottawa Senators. He was originally a sixth-round pick for the Senators in the 2020 NHL Draft.
Overall, Reinhardt had an impressive preseason, displaying physical prowess and tenacity.
