When the Vegas Golden Knights hired Mark Shunock to become what he jokingly calls a "professional hype man," two major passions in his life became immutably linked. Born into a hockey family, Shunock had aspirations for the NHL in his youth. In his early adulthood, he starred in Broadway plays such as The Lion King... and eventually landed in Las Vegas with Rock of Ages. What happened next is the stuff of fairytales and storybooks. Many said that hockey would never survive in the desert, and no one could have predicted the destiny that VGK fulfilled. Mark Shunock was an integral part of the Vegas Golden Knights' revolutionary reinvention of NHL game presentation... and he was a firsthand participant in their ascension from the golden misfits to Stanley Cup champions in 2023. Now, he continues to build his legacy in Las Vegas with his philanthropic project Mondays Dark - and has expanded his professional horizons in sports with Top Rank Boxing.
