The Existential VGK Questionnaire presented by Las Vegas is a set of questions offered to players, coaches, management and broadcasters. Based loosely on Proust’s Questionnaire it combines hockey and Vegas topics for a unique look into our people. Look for new editions throughout the season.
This edition centers around Zach Whitecloud. Whitecloud signed with the Golden Knights as a free agent out of Bemidji State University and has worked his way up in the organization since signing in 2018. The Brandon, Manitoba native has posted 70 points (21G, 49A) in 314 games with the Golden Knights and has been a mainstay on the Vegas blueline since 2020. Whitecloud scored the game-winning goal in Game 1 of the 2023 Stanley Cup Final as he and the Golden Knights captured the Stanley Cup. The 28-year-old defenseman signed a six-year contract extension with the Golden Knights in 2021.
