He’s already celebrated his Stanley Cup championship with his father on the T-Mobile Arena ice and with hundreds of thousands of screaming Las Vegans on the Strip. And Zach Whitecloud wants to keep celebrating with fans.

The Golden Knights defenseman will hold a meet-and-greet session with fans Thursday from 6 to 8 p.m. at Sierra Gold on Jones Boulevard near the 215 Beltway.

The first 125 people in attendance will get a custom puck signed by Whitecloud.

One caveat: Fans must be 21 or older to participate.

Whitecloud, the first Sioux Valley Dakota Nation member to play in the NHL, had two goals and six assists and recorded a plus-14 rating during the postseason to help the Golden Knights win their first Stanley Cup.
