The Vegas Golden Knights retire number 58 in honor of the 58 victims from the Oct 1 shooting

The Vegas Golden Knights have been a team for less than a year, and a number has already been raised to the rafters.

On Saturday, the Knights retired the number 58 in honor of the victims of the October 1st shooting at the Route 91 Harvest music festival.

The banner raised features 58 stars with the named of the victims. The stars are styled after the Golden Knights jersey while the tagline VEGAS STRONG is printed at the top.

In a touching pregame ceremony, the Knights projected all 58 names on the ice.
