On Thursday night, the Golden Knights will wear specialty jerseys during warmups which will be signed and will be available for auction. Nameplates will be bundled with jerseys and player-used, rainbow-taped sticks will also be available for purchase at the online auction. A portion of the stick auction proceeds will be given to the You Can Play Project, in support of the NHL's You Can Play initiative. The specialty jersey focuses on the theme of "Wandering and Coming Home in Vegas," a narrative that ties the Knights, the LGBTQ+, and the Las Vegas communities together. Mio Linzie, a Swedish illustrator, created the team's jersey for PRIDE Knight.
