RALEIGH, N.C. \u2014 Speaking on the eve of the Stanley Cup Final, goaltender Carter Hart said Monday he has learned and grown a lot since signing with the Vegas Golden Knights<\/a> after he and four other players were reinstated by the NHL following their acquittals in the Hockey Canada sexual assault case.<\/p>

Hart is in the spotlight now<\/a> in large part because he is the only one of the five players to sign a contract in the league. He addressed the situation after joining the Golden Knights in October but has spoken only about hockey since.<\/p>\n

He was asked on Cup Final media day about comments he made in the fall and how he has learned and grown since then.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been able to meet a lot of good people in the community,\u201d Hart said. \u201cI think the Vegas Golden Knights Foundation has done a really good job of making it easy for me to integrate into the community and meet a lot of cool people. Just really fortunate to be here in Vegas. It\u2019s a great culture of people. Like I said, I\u2019ve met a lot of cool people and just very fortunate to be here in Las Vegas and with this group.\u201d<\/p>

Hart\u2019s session was ended after his answer. General manager Kelly McCrimmon, who chose to sign Hart to a two-year, $4 million contract<\/a> , was asked about the thought process and took issue with the notion that the 27-year-old goalie came with baggage.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe went through a lengthy process of due diligence with Carter,\u201d McCrimmon said. \u201cCarter is a really good person. He\u2019s ingrained himself in our community. He\u2019s a player that I\u2019ve known a long time, long prior to him becoming an NHL player. Playing very well. Obviously a big part of how our team is at this point that we\u2019re at today, and he\u2019s fit in seamlessly with his teammates.\u201d<\/p>
