President Biden hosted the 2023 Stanley Cup Champions, the Vegas Golden Knights, at the White House. The team, including Reilly Smith who rejoined them for the day, presented Biden with a jersey and an engraved gold stick, which the President humorously claimed weighed about 800 pounds. Captain Mark Stone, despite admitting to nerves, gave a speech that included a well-received joke. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto joined the team for a photo opportunity. Biden also took the opportunity to praise Vegas sports, calling it one of the best shows in town.
