DYK for Mason Morelli

On 12 March 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Mason Morelli, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that at the age of 28, Mason Morelli became the first player in Vegas Golden Knights franchise history to record two points in their National Hockey League debut game? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Mason Morelli. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Mason Morelli), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
