What happened: The NHL defenseman's visit coincided with Las Vegas' opening week. Six days earlier, Kubiak named Kirk Cousins the Raiders' opening-day quarterback.

By the numbers: McNabb ranks first in Golden Knights history with 647 games, 1,416 blocked shots and 1,469 hits.

What to watch: Kubiak's regular-season debut and McNabb's 2026-27 training camp are the next competitive checkpoints.
