The number of season ticket deposits for the new Golden Knights’ American Hockey League team in Henderson is more than 6,000.
The cheapest per-game ticket price under a season deal would be $10, too. The cost of an individual game ticket would likely be in the $25 range.
The Knights’ AHL team will be play in the Orleans Arena in 2020-21.
The city of Henderson and the Golden Knights plan to partner on an arena deal to enclose the Henderson Pavilion to have a 6,000-seat arena to house the AHL team. That’s in addition to the $25 million community ice center that the Golden Knights are already building on 3.2 acres on Water Street. The city of Henderson is contributing $10.75 million toward that VGK community ice center that will be officially called, Lifeguard Arena.
It’s not known whether the 6,000-seat arena in Henderson at Henderson Pavilion will be read for the 2021-22 season, so there is a possibility the AHL team might play a second season at the Orleans Arena.
The city and the Golden Knights hope to present more details at the end of the month on their partnership.
