Marc Gatcomb pushes for NHL roster spot with Golden Knights

Marc Gatcomb is competing for a roster position with the Vegas Golden Knights as they wrap up their preseason. In the final exhibition against the San Jose Sharks, he recorded three hits and two blocked shots in nearly 11 minutes of ice time, contributing to the Knights' preparation for the upcoming season. Gatcomb, 27, aims to secure a spot on the fourth line after signing as a free agent following two years with the New York Islanders. His performance will be evaluated before rosters are finalized by the NHL's 2 p.m. Pacific deadline on Monday, ahead of the Golden Knights' opening game against Chicago.
