The Vegas Golden Knights may be new to the NHL, but they already have one of the league’s strongest social media games.
So far, they’ve provided some hilarious in-game updates and managed to completely burn the Montreal Canadiens after the two teams exchanged chirps online.
The franchise has also demonstrated a unique way of announcing rosters, which was recently shown ahead of the team’s contests against the Vancouver Canucks and San Jose Sharks. They haven’t exactly followed protocol, sometimes even neglecting to provide an actual name.
The Golden Knights’ keyboarders were at it again, this time announcing goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury’s first start with a unique twist. To no surprise, they made sure to include the net-minder’s nickname.
They then confirmed the announcement with another awesome tweet.
They’re sure not afraid to go heavy on the emojis.
Fleury is one of the team’s more popular players and the only one with a Stanley Cup to his name. Expectations aren’t exactly high this season, but the 'Flower' should be one of their few bright spots and consequently become a focal point of the organization’s Twitter account. If you don’t already follow them, make sure to give the team a look because their content has been pretty awesome so far.
