I can agree with that!

A rivalry for the ages
1st game will be June 3rd at 8h00pm eastern time.
Go Vegas!
Anyone else going to be watching game 1 tonight? Should be a good series if Florida can keep up like they have so far.
LV wins game 1.
Go Vegas!
They sure turned that close game into a mess for Florida.
Game #2 will be June 5th at 8h00pm eastern time.
I am a season ticket holder here in Vegas and went to about 30 games so far this year. Did not go to game 1 but am going tonight. GO KNIGHTS GO!
P.S. I highly recommend all sports fans take in a VGK game some time when you are in Vegas. Arrive early, hang out at Beer Haus, wait for the drum line and cheerleaders to show up, and then walk over to the building with them. It's a very collegiate atmosphere outside with the DJ, fans, etc.... Then you get inside and it's straight VEGAS! Really fun!
Seems like Vegas is dominating Florida. Florida just can't keep up in game #2.
Game #3 will be June 8th at 8h00pm eastern time.
It's shocking how many goals have been scored this entire playoff bracket
Florida looks like they are just target practice for Vegas
LV seems to be just that good of a team. They may win a few Cups in the next 5 years.
I agree, but the series isn't over yet, Florida was down 2-0 to the Bruins I think and look.what happened there
Agreed. Hope they do would make for a better series.
Florida wins game 3!!!
Go Florida!!!
Its all about 💰 😅
Lets go Florida lets get this series tied 2-2!!!
Vegas takes game 4 and leads series 3-1.
Game #5 tomorrow at 8h00pm eastern time.
Game starts in 30 minutes I hope LV justs ends this series it is not a great series as I thought it would be.
Seems like it is Vegas season to win The Cup they lead 4-1 in the 2nd period. Pretty impressive to win a Cup in 6 seasons in the NHL.
VG wins
That is it folks the Vegas Golden Knights are the 2022-23 Stanley Cup champion congrats to them!!! See you guys for the 2023-24 season with the add of a potential mega superstar in Chicago Connor Bedard.
Wow what a beating 9-3!!! Vegas is the new top team in the NHL and congrats to them!!!
the series was officially over after the Kolesar hit on Tkachuk. Not just because his shoulder is hanging by a Barbie butterfly band-aid, but since Florida has no true PP QB, and with Huberdeau gone, Florida also doesn't have a plus half-wall distributor (Pat Kane, Nick Backstrom, Huberdeau type).
So their PP is usually forced to run through Tkachuk from the goal-line, which is suboptimal because it leads to A) a static PP lacking movement - b) the defense already knows where the Panthers are going to be since there is no movement - easiest thing for a penalty killer to do is shut down a play when you know where everybody is going to be. Puck goes around the outside, fed back to Tkachuk, he has to feed a pass through 3 sticks with a miracle pass in the slot or at the backdoor. Barkov has to drift out to the wall to cover that assignment, even though he should be the one in the slot, in the bumper position, so that leaves Sam Bennett to fill Barkov's bumper slot, and he can't do it, because he doesn't have the hands or high enough of an offensive IQ to do that job.
Thus in order for Florida to win this series, it would have taken Bob to singlehandedly steal two games, slog their way to two more victories at a 1-0 or 2-1 score with a pinball goal. In the end, Vegas, like Carolina, didn't fall for their meatball act. Didn't respond to getting punched, slashed, cross-checked, stick-raked etc. A complete masterclass in dealing with a heavy forecheck and staying out of the box. So Florida can join the bubble-cup Montreal team who had no business getting to where they are. They need a Tyson Barrie type on the blueline and someone who can work the half-wall on offense. Sam Reinhardt should be the first guy getting the boot. Complete passenger.
9-3?
Congrats to Vegas
Went to over 30 games this season including last night. That was fun! Parade on Saturday!
Tkachuk deserved the hit he received by Kolesar because he tried to harm Jack Eichel,reminds me of pay back time when Scott Stevens laid out Eric Lindros who deserved the brutal check from Scott Stevens because Lindros made a career of hitting smaller players.
