Golden Knights owner wants to prevent Capitals fans from sitting together

Vegas Golden Knights owner Bill Foley was on hand to see his team defeat the Washington Capitals in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final, but there is one notable change he'd like to make moving forward.

Foley was irked by the Capitals' traveling fan base that occupied large portions of the arena and is considering not selling blocks of tickets as the Golden Knights look to win a title in their inaugural season.

"I can move around the ticket locations," Foley told Alan Snel of LVSportsBiz.com. "I don't want to see them together."

Foley said he believed Capitals supporters occupied approximately 12 percent of T-Mobile Arena.

It doesn't appear Foley will get his wish imminently, but a raucous home crowd figures to give Vegas the home-ice advantage it needs entering a pivotal Game 2.
