LAS VEGAS, NV - OCTOBER 10: Workers from the Route 91 Harvest country music festival (L) sing the American national anthem as the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Honor Guard stands by before the Vegas Golden Knights' inaugural regular-season home opener against the Arizona Coyotes at T-Mobile Arena on October 10, 2017 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Golden Knights honored first responders and victims of last week's mass shooting at the game. On October 1, Stephen Paddock killed 58 people and injured more than 450 after he opened fire on a large crowd at the Route 91 Harvest country music festival.
