Your Henderson Silver Knights will be back at The Stronghold soon!
TEDDY CONFETTI
Defenseman Dysin Mayo scored this year’s annual Lucky Launch goal and sent thousands of stuffed animals raining down onto home ice. Silver Knights fans threw 15,918 teddies onto the ice, a new franchise record. Some of the collected toys were distributed to Children’s Medical Center at Summerlin Hospital, Toys for Tots, and St. Jude’s Ranch for Children, among other great causes.

FLURRY OF FIRSTS
Five Silver Knights – Kaedan Korczak, Mason Morelli, Brendan Brisson, Lukas Cormier, and Sheldon Rempal – reached an NHL milestone this season. Brisson, Cormier and Morelli all made their NHL debuts; Morelli, Brisson, Korczak, and Rempal all scored their first NHL goals; and Cormier recorded his first NHL assist.
FOUR THE RECORD BOOKS
Forward Sheldon Rempal became the first Silver Knight in franchise history to score four goals in a game. On January 17, he led Henderson to a 6-4 victory over the Coachella Valley Firebirds. Rempal completed the hat trick, the first of his career, with a game-winning power-play goal at 7:04 in the third period. He added an unassisted empty-netter with 0.7 seconds left in the game for his fourth to seal a Silver Knights victory.
LUCKY EIGHT GOAL
The Silver Knights set a new franchise record for goals in a game with an 8-1 victory over the Iowa Wild on February 2. Forward Gage Quinney, assisted by Sheldon Rempal and Dysin Mayo, scored the eighth goal of the game on the power play early in the third period.
SHUTOUT FOR THE MAYOR OF SAVE-VILLE
Goaltender Isaiah Saville earned his first AHL shutout on December 31 against the Ontario Reign, stopping 24 of 24 shots on goal.
THE ARMOR PROTECTS, THE ARMOR REFLECTS
On December 30, the Silver Knights wore the team’s new third jerseys on home ice for the first time. Emblazoned with the crest of House Henderson, these jerseys pay tribute to the Nobles who fill The Stronghold and make it the best place to play in the AHL.

CAPTAINING THE SHIP
On October 12, the Henderson Silver Knights named Jake Bischoff the fourth captain in franchise history. Bischoff played in his 300th career AHL game on March 24 and earned his first career multi-goal game on March 8.
SEMPER SUPRA
On Military Appreciation Knight, the Henderson Silver Knights celebrated the Space Force. The crest, designed by Austin Zima, featured on the team’s specialty jerseys and custom jacket (created by Jeanius Jackets). These items raised $19,496 for the HSK and Folded Flag foundations, our highest jersey and jacket auction of the year.
🇺🇸 This Military Appreciation Knight, we honor the Space Force and their innovation in defending our nation's freedoms in space.
We'll wear these jerseys on Friday night! pic.twitter.com/z2CEBsN2iB
