Golden Knights to host virtual game against Red Wings
It’s Knight time!
Well kind of.
The Golden Knights are hosting a virtual hockey game between the Knights and Detroit Red Wings Friday at 3 p.m., the team announced.
The “game” will go live on the team’s official Twitch channel (VGKTwitch) and will feature the matchup played on NHL ‘20.
In-arena host Big D will play as the Knights against a computer simulation of the Red Wings.
Fans will feel like they are at T-Mobile Arena with traditional Knights in-arena entertainment elements such as a warm-up video, teaser, starting line-up introductions, television timeout entertainment and unique intermission entertainment.
Knights broadcaster Daren Millard will provide commentary, play-by-play and viewer interaction.
