Everyone's favorite fill-in hockey reporter returned to the ice for NHL Opening Night.

Lazlo Holmes, the clueless substitute reporter character portrayed by Chance the Rapper originally on "Saturday Night Live" met up with Vegas Golden Knights forward Jonathan Marchessault.

Marchessault schooled Holmes on the correct pronunciation of his name and the fact that you can indeed play hockey in the desert.
In the end, after some confusion, they did that hockey. So, there's that.
