Knights return to ice without 5 players from Olympic final
LOS ANGELES — Five Vegas Golden Knights players who competed in the Olympic gold-medal game sat out Wednesday night against the Los Angeles Kings in the NHL's return from a three-week break.
Having already ruled out center Jack Eichel and defenseman Noah Hanifin from the champion United States, the Golden Knights traveled without Canadian forwards Mark Stone and Mitch Marner and defenseman Shea Theodore.
"Well, it's a challenge to the group, and it's an opportunity for others, so we still got 20 NHL players in our lineup," Golden Knights coach Bruce Cassidy said. "Obviously, less room for error when you're missing some real difference-makers."

Eichel, Hanifin to miss Golden Knights’ first game back from Olympic break
The Vegas Golden Knights will be shorthanded returning from the Olympic break, as center Jack Eichel and defenseman Noah Hanifin are expected to miss their first game back on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Kings, according to Golden Knights head coach Bruce Cassidy.
Bruce Cassidy confirms that Jack Eichel and Noah Hanifin are out tomorrow. Plan is for them to join on Friday.
Mitch Marner, Mark Stone and Shea Theodore are TBD.
Eichel and Hanifin will miss the game due to attending the White House on Tuesday for the State of the Union Address, along with most of their United States’ Olympic teammates. They were invited to the White House by U.S. president Donald Trump after their 2-1 overtime win over Canada in the gold-medal game at the Olympics. The invitation became known to the public after a video from the locker room celebration showed the team on a call with Trump via FBI director Kash Patel, who was at the tournament and celebrating with the players in the locker room.
