The property says guests can pay $35 to have a personal item signed, along with hockey pucks for $35, hockey sticks for $50 and jerseys for $100.

Downtown Grand said the event will run from 4 p.m. until 6 p.m. Friday in the old William Hill space across from Freedom Beat.

Engelland announced his retirement from the team in Dec. 2020. Upon retirement, the Golden Knights announced that Engelland would transition to the Vegas Golden Knights Foundation, serving as the special assistant to the owner.

The team noted at the time that Engelland has been a Las Vegas resident for the majority of his career, after meeting his wife, Melissa, while playing with the Wranglers. Their two sons, Cash and Talon were also born in Las Vegas, the team said.
