The Golden Knights plan to play with a chip on their shoulders this season. It’s a tactic as old as time, and it’s worked for plenty of teams before.

Golden Knights coach Bruce Cassidy is in his third season with the team, and he hasn’t changed his approach to get the most out of his players.
Gardner Minshew and Aidan O’Connell are nice guys. But the Raiders need to do whatever it takes to improve at quarterback next year.
The Raiders didn’t do anything well after going up 10-0 in Denver on Sunday. They deserve criticism across the board for their loss.
One loss doesn’t define a season, and UNLV still has everything to play for following an overtime setback to Syracuse on Friday at Allegiant Stadium.
The Raiders used a little imagination in their win over the Browns last week. They’ll need a lot more of it without star wide receiver Davante Adams.
Texas-El Paso, the seventh full-time member of the Mountain West, checks the significant boxes needed to be a good partner for the conference.
Davante Adams asked for a trade and will get one. But why didn’t the Raiders trade their star wide receiver some time ago and adopt a total rebuild mentality?
The Raiders are 2-2 after the first quarter of the season, having reached that record in an unconventional manner Sunday against the Cleveland Browns.
An inspired defensive effort and another solid day from punter AJ Cole helped the Raiders defeat the Browns at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday.
With the Matthew Sluka saga behind it, the UNLV football team turned to Hajj-Malik Williams to lead their offense against Fresno State, and he was terrific.
The Raiders have run for just 153 yards through three games. They can’t keep forcing the ground game if it isn’t going to lead to results.
Raiders safety Isaiah Pola-Mao is so excited to make his first start of the season Sunday against the Browns he said he’s had trouble sleeping.
The departure of UNLV quarterback Matthew Sluka is the latest example that this is no longer about education or representing a university and your fellow students.
Whether it’s the Mountain West or Pac-12, UNLV, suddenly in a position of power, should make the best deal possible to set the school up for a run at the Big 12.
