Marner family receives Vegas-style welcome from Golden Knights

The Vegas Golden Knights aced their welcome party for the Marner family.

Mitch Marner received a warm welcome from his new team after being traded to the Golden Knights from the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday.

Joined by his wife, Stephanie and son, Miles, Marner was cheered on by the Golden Knights staff as he put on his No. 93 gold jersey for the first time in a video posted to social media.

Marner put his hands up in the air and cheered before picking up Miles, who sported his own Golden Knights jersey.

Golden Knights mascot, Chance, high-fived the forward as he walked down a line of Golden Knights cheerleaders, showgirls and staff while the drum line played.

Marner signed an eight-year, $96 million contract before the trade to Vegas.

“Everything here is a good fit for my wife and I and our new son,” Marner said during an introductory press conference. “The winning aspect of this team really helps everything as well. We have great players here. Luckily it all worked out because this is where we wanted to be."
