As the summer continues for the Vegas Golden Knights, the organization is diving into expanding its global reach through its week-long High Performance Camp in Vienna, Austria with the EBHL's Vienna Capitals.

The Golden Knights hockey operations team is taking its playing and coaching philosophies overseas to work with the Vienna Capitals players, coaches and management on a collaborative camp that Director of Hockey Operations Misha Donskov said will benefit both teams immensely.

"It's a very special and unique opportunity for both organizations to do something like this," Donskov said.

Donskov is heading to Vienna with Assistant Coach Mike Kelly and Video Coach Tommy Cruz to lead on-ice and off-ice seminars that will focus on a variety of aspects of hockey. The group aims to provide a world-class, NHL-style camp that will benefit each Vienna Capitlas player at camp. They'll focus on the concepts of skill development, individual tactics, team and game tactics and NHL structure, drills and pace. Each day will emphasize a different theme to provide a well-rounded experience for both sides.

When Isaiah Saville visits Vegas, he has more than a few options for where to stay. There are the endless choices near The Fortress on the Strip, Red Rock Hotel within walking distance of City National Arena... or his brother's house. As luck would have it, Saville's brother just moved to the desert a couple months ago from their hometown of Anchorage, Alaska.

The siblings found out they'd be neighbors again at a draft watch party hosted by Isaiah's uncle in Alaska.

"He got in at 2 in the morning here and when we found out he was so excited," said Saville. "He's pumped to hopefully be living in the same state again, finally. He was at a loss of words as well as I was. I'm just really excited."

That's not the only connection the 2019 fifth round draft pick (135th overall) of the Vegas Golden Knights has to the city. In 2017, his parents were in attendance at the first Golden Knights game ever played at T-Mobile Arena.

Returning to his third development camp in as many years, Jack Dugan knew he wouldn't be nervous the way he was during the Golden Knights inaugural season development camp.

A fifth round pick by Vegas in the 2017 NHL Draft, Dugan has seen the past two professional camps as an opportunity to do more than just impress on the ice.

"There are definitely some guys that are looking to some of the older guys for some guidance," Dugan said. "That's a nice honor, those guys are looking at you to guide them."

Coming out of the 2017 camp, the forward played with the Chicago Steel of the USHL recording 31 goals and 35 assists in 54 games. His 66 points ranked third in the USHL in scoring.
