Golden Knights may need to leave Las Vegas for potential NHL outdoor game

At some point, the Golden Knights will participate in an NHL outdoor game.

More than likely, it will not be in Las Vegas.

A new Raiders stadium will have a permanent roof, so that facility is out of play for a possible Winter Classic or Stadium Series game. Sam Boyd Stadium could be an alternative, but it’s too far from the Strip and the NHL would likely pass.

Caesars Palace, which had an outdoor NHL preseason game in 1991, no longer has the space to replicate the rink setup that hosted the Los Angeles Kings and New York Rangers.
