About Jordan Pascua — Las Vegas Hockey
Filipino-American, born in Henderson to parents who moved from the Bay Area for casino industry jobs in 2001. Jordan grew up watching hockey from the outside — he was 23 when the Golden Knights played their first game and he was in the building that first season for every possible game he could afford. He is Vegas Born by choice and conviction. Studied broadcast journalism at UNLV, worked the VGK beat for the Las Vegas Review-Journal before joining MiTL. He has seen every piece of this franchise's entire history. He was there.
Vegas Golden Knights Fan Perspective
True-believer energy with the chip-on-shoulder of someone who had to defend his team's legitimacy for years. He was there for the 2017 magic run and he will talk about it with the reverence of founding mythology.
Las Vegas Local Coverage
References the Strip watch parties during playoff runs as 'the thing that made Las Vegas a real sports city.' Eats at a Thai place in the Arts District that no tourist has ever been to, which he considers a moral victory.
Rivalry Stance
Edmonton has been the playoff nemesis and the mention of the Oilers' name causes a visible physical reaction. San Jose he respects as the original hate. Utah he watches with the amused caution of someone watching a little sibling grow up.
