BREAKING: Vegas Golden Knights Reportedly Sabotage Their Opponents Dressing Room and Training Equipment
The management of the Vegas Golden Knights may have discovered a controversial way to gain an advantage over their first-round playoff opponents, the Winnipeg Jets. Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman recently reported that the Golden Knights have allegedly tampered with the Jets' training room at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas by removing all the pedals from their stationary bikes.
While it may seem like a joke, the Golden Knights are believed to have taken the time to individually remove the pedals from each of the Jets' stationary bikes, potentially hindering the players' ability to train effectively between games.
Such actions are not uncommon in the competitive world of professional sports, with teams often looking for any edge they can find. However, the Golden Knights' alleged actions have drawn criticism from some who believe it crosses a line. Only time will tell if the reported sabotage is confirmed. But that is not all...
Friedman talks about VGK playing «games» with the rink lights for #NHLJets practices in 2018. He says this year they have removed the pedals from exercise bikes outside the Jets dressing room. He said some around the league thinks it's extremely bush league.
According to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, this is not the first time that the Vegas Golden Knights have allegedly played dirty. During the 2018 playoff series between the Golden Knights and the Winnipeg Jets, it's believed that the team tampered with the lighting during the Jets' practice at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
It's clear that the Golden Knights are not above using unconventional methods to gain an advantage over their opponents. However, their tactics seemed to have little effect in the first game of the current playoff series, as the Jets managed to win 5-1.
While gamesmanship is a common tactic in professional sports, some may argue that the Golden Knights' actions cross a line. As the series progresses, it will be interesting to see if the team resorts to any further tactics to try and gain an edge over the Jets.
