Nobody is perfect.
I took one look at the Vegas Golden Knights game poster Tuesday night and knew something was off.
Golden Knights defenseman Brayden McNabb was the featured player on the free game poster.
And the Golden Knights misspelled his first name: “Bradyen” appeared on the poster.
So, the team pulled the poster as fans filed into T-Mobile Arena tonight.
The misspelling slipped through.

Season ticket holder Barbara Landes was not happy when she raised the issue of no posters with her account executive at the Golden Knights.
“Our account executive told us they ran out, not about the misspelling,” Landes said.
But on the plus side, the poster will now be a collector’s item.

The Golden Knights wasted no time having the jerseys of two new players — Ryan Reaves and Tomas Tatar — on sale at concession stands around T-Mobile Arena.
The team made 60 jerseys bearing the name of new each players and had 15 jerseys at three points of sale in the venue and at the team store, the Armory.
Fans were seen wearing the Reaves and Tatar jerseys in T-Mobile Arena tonight.

The poster name spelling was a minor issue Tuesday night as the Los Angeles Kings defeated the Golden Knights, 4-1, after Monday night’s Kings’ 3-2 win in LA.
The second biggest crowd of the year filled T-Mobile Arena for a Golden Knights game. Announced attendance was 18,328 — way above the official arena capacity for hockey at 17,367. The Golden Knights were averaging 17,980 after 32 home dates entering Tuesday’s home game with the LA Kings.
