The Vegas Golden Knights are in the Stanley Cup Finales. 1

What kind of story is this????
It's amazing as fuck but you have to ask yourself, was the expansion draft too harsh on the other teams? Perhaps teams should have been allowed to protect one more player. Vegas was allowed thirty 2nd line players and were able to discard of 9 players via trade to get 1st line players.
Essentially they were allowed to build the most balanced team team imaginable. I think it fucked over the GMs of every team. They work for years trying to build a winning tem and then a new team just take a piece out of your hardly built puzzle and now you are stuck having to make up for it. It's a NHL dick move to all the teams in the league.
Congrats to Vegas though. It's a spectacular year. They will win the Stanley Cup and might go on winning another net year also!

I'm really proud, as a hockey fan, to see a first year team make it to the finals. I'd like to see the Lightning win games 6 against the Caps and then play against this awesome rookie team. May the best team win.

I dont understand how a hockey fan can be anything but disgusted by this. Fuck that team and all their fans.

Well Fuck Me, I like watching them. There are a lot of dumb rules in Sport and until you expose how dumb they are they're still going to stay on the books.
The GK didn't set the rules they work with what they had and did very well. Blaming them because they most likely outed one of your favorite teams is just whining.
Go Caps!

Believing they got there legitimately is fantasy. Tired of teams getting gifted championships after "tragedies".

But they didn't create 'tragedy', how are they to blame?

To be honest i dont care who wins or loses. My team didnt even come close to the playoffs. I didnt even know there was such a team as GK's until i started watching the playoffs. I know there new but havent really read up on them because i just want to see a great game being played.
Go Blackhawks

Lol they're literally team of second stringers and players teams didnt really want. They had no prior chemistry and played well together. I don't know how their being "gifted " or how it's unfair at all.

That is a gross misrepresentation of how that team was built. With the way they set up this expansion draft they basically got to build a super team.

Between the rigged expansion draft, the ridiculous pregame ceremonies that ruin the game, and the bandwagon "fans" who dont even know what icing is, I really dont get where the appeal is with this team.

They're not exactly a team of all stars. Most of the teams roster aren't even notable

We dont even know who their opponent is and yet you are most likely correct.

its retarded and the fact that Hartford didn't get a team back with all the diehard fans that bleed green up hear unbelievable. almost makes me sick they're gonna be in the big show. if Hartford got a team you think they would be poised to win a cup. fucking ridiculous. I mean to be able to come in an cherry pick. bettman should be assassinated someone gotta put a stop to this. I'm glad a bunch of fucking douche bags from the desert bought thier championship hockey team they totally deserve and everybody made a ton of money. so great for the league and sportsmanship.

@ MagicMush123 No chemistry and a brand new management team.
@CHeifM4sterDiezl I want all Championships to go to 7 games, what's the alternative, -watching baseball?
- Fuck Hartford, They couldn't support a winning team these days, - That's what they said about the douche bags from FLA when the League went south
@Ran-D -'It's VEGAS BABY' Everything is supposed to be over the top. I'm guess by this time of year they have a grasp of the game maybe not O-6 cities knowledge but that's where the drama kicks in

Anybody who watches hockey knows it’s an unforgiving sport. A bunch of great players and teams don’t make the finals. There’s a lot of blood sweat and tears that never show up on the Stanley Cup

I've never been attracted by the lights and shows of Vegas and only watched the pregame show once. I usually don't start watching until after the game starts.

Not only that. They were all players that their team chose to give away. Literally players the original teams didnt want
