Even though the Las Vegas Golden Knights is one of the newest teams to take the ice in the NHL, Chris Davidson Adams, the team’s head equipment manager, is no rookie. He’s been doing his job, or something like it, since he was 16 and filling water bottles for pro athletes back in Wisconsin.
Chris’s expertise was invaluable while the Golden Knights worked with Montel to devise a sports equipment storage solution that fits as well as a laced-up pair of skates.
The Golden Knights play at T-Mobile Arena, but they practice at City National Arena, so an investment in smarter sports equipment storage would need to address the organizational hurdles of spreading equipment across two locations.
And, no surprises here-your average shelf isn’t designed to properly or efficiently store cumbersome things like pads and sticks, let alone provide the flexibility to store them differently as needs change season after season.
Chris will be the first to tell you: managing sports equipment in the NHL is more than hunting down a clean pair of socks. Equipment can’t fill the entire storage space. Chris and his team sharpen skates and repair pads, which necessitates space for skate sharpeners and sewing machines.
