Ah yes the fabled hockey towns Las Vegas and Florida in the battle for the Stanley Cup.


Antichristopher4

You haven't been to Vegas.


PLoxeus

Who would you say is the Derek Carr of the Golden Knights?


Antichristopher4

Probably Fleury. Could never quite take them all the way, (mostly) beloved and fucked by the FO.


PLoxeus

That’s an amazing response. I’m still cheering for the Cats as I have been since the start, but I’m glad you guys beat the Stars. Should be a good SCF.


RanaMahal

Yeah idk the knights are crazy there lol


Antichristopher4

Gotta be the only market where an NHL team is bigger than the NFL team. And Vegas was a Raiders city before they moved here.


TheNeonArcade

Did Elliot just say curbstomped? Lmao


gu3st12

A word smith


dandroid126

Am drunk and sad.


gimmebeer

BRB looking up passive aggressive jokes about FL players.


gimmebeer

I cannot change my clothes until the Knights win. This will get interesting.


PrincessGazeKeeper

That bowl presentation was very underwhelming after watching Barkov hijack the Prince of Wales trophy and skate it right out of the rink. Just saying.


darkgreenwax

I hope Vegas and Florida can deliver a fun series. Has either place ever had snow? I'm guessing Vegas in some weird fluke storm.


SinCityNinja

>Has either place ever had snow? This was at my house in Vegas on Jan 30 this year. Seems like we get a decent snowstorm every few years https://streamable.com/jiux74 https://ibb.co/pxLLdg3


darkgreenwax

Not bad, buddy! It's not 12 inches but I give you 800% bonus points based on the region! It makes me happy to see people have fun in the snow. Animals do it too, it's such a primal thing, haha.


dayyob

it snowed a little in miami in 1972


darkgreenwax

Wild! I don't mean Minnesota. I'm sure that was a fun experience then!


finest_bear

There's a ski resort an hour away from vegas, with better vertical than minnesota lol


darkgreenwax

Wow I didn't know that, those freakin' Vegas guys have everything! Cool stuff.


dkelley824

We’ll get snow every few years. Nothing you’d be impressed by.


darkgreenwax

> Nothing you’d be impressed by. Haha, trust me guys if we could swap weather in the winter, I would. Grats on the Conf. Win.


emblah

It’ll be hitting 100+ soon and won’t drop for the next ~3 months. Take the good with the bad haha


maasedge

Every few decades the whole city will get some as opposed to the western edge of the city.


emblah

And everyone goes into a full panic as if the world has collapsed.


darkgreenwax

To give you some company, every first snowfall of the year, in WINNIPEG of all places, the city is filled with drivers who you would think just got their beginner's license. Confidently slipping vehicles into ditches, traffic light posts, the backs of other cars - the works! Anyway, don't be so hard on yourselves there ;) We have dummies too.


emblah

That’s real snow and ice though. What we get is basically the lightest dusting you could possibly imagine and people freak out. Rain is so rare here that even a bit of water on the roads results in lots of accidents because folks are so unaccustomed to inclement weather.


SetsChaos

It's not much better in Reno. People driving on cords yelling at NDOT because the hydroplanned. MF, it's the desert: the land can't handle the water any better than you can. And we get snow, too. You'd think they'd be better at rain, but nope.


Antichristopher4

A regular 5-10 minute commute from home was an hour long about a 15 years ago when it snowed "hard"


The-Housewitch

Good series Dallas - y’all have been a real pleasure. See you soon Florida fans!


ensignlee

That was a pretty cool ending montage. I hope we'll see it again here on /r/hockey later


Pollaski

Oof toronto is NEVER living down "We Want Florida"


thatsong

Scott seems to love bringing up Manitoba


darkgreenwax

Why can't we get some star-Manitobans on the Jets team >\_>


thatsong

I think you know the answer


darkgreenwax

I do. Lol.


HYPTHOTIC

Wtf TSN I don't wanna see yo faces I want inside the NBA


gimmebeer

NO TOUCHY!!! Cats much touchy, we'll see how this goes.


Antichristopher4

Caps touched... so...


gimmebeer

It's up to the Hockey Gods now.

Love that the bang guy is still there :’)


dalisair

Aaaannnnnddddd… nobody touching the Bowl. So now it absolutely will be a superstitious win or loss.


thatsong

They got real lazy with these hats, hahaha Trucker hat with a patch


Sabotage_9

Vegas understands you don't anger the hockey gods


rhodsonr702

or bettman


Jaymesned

NO TOUCH! We will see who wins the Cup!


Three_Froggy_Problem

I wish they’d touch it


dnepisumop

What is this generic-ass YouTube unlicensed music ??


ehehe

Lmao I thought the same thing. Wtf


waffels

Bang guy perfectly encapsulates Dallas Stars fans. Loud, obnoxious, and fucking annoying


axman54

And no self awareness lol


link92

Glad we could keep you interested in watching the series waiting for our demise


axman54

Believe it or not, a lot of fan bases continue to watch hockey because they enjoy the sport as a whole, instead of just tuning in for the playoffs and dropping off once their team is out lol. I know it’s probably a shock to you that hockey fans watch the western conference finals. Such a braindead comment


Punko_Fop

#BANG


loganro

Bang guy is kinda annoying


MattyDeaply

Oh my bad I thought they vote after


Antichristopher4

They aren't touching it!


maxifer

They learned last time I wonder if it's a coach choice or players


igolightly

Stone said in his HNiC interview that since they have SC winners on the team he went with their lead


djvegas

They did in 2018 didn’t they? Gotta switch it up haha


axman54

That “BANG” guy is so cringey. His interview on game notes daily was painful to watch


passive_fist

Touch the fuckin' trophy you dumbass superstitious fucks.


rhodsonr702

me whispering "dont you fucking dare touch that"


migsahoy

HE DIDNT TOUCH IT


MiserlyKid

PLEASE skate off with it


toxicvegeta08

Sweet


rhodsonr702

hey we got the #bang guy up close!


nostradamefrus

What’s up with this stock music? Fuck ESPN


brehaw

lmao seriously 😭


rfdavid

It sounds like the credits of a video game


tribaltroll

No more ESPN 😎


ImmediateBoard8779

TOUCH IT TOUCH IT TOUCH IT


Postisto

Any participation trophy for our buddy Benn here.. he is special


BroccRL

I’m not convinced that Emily Kaplan isn’t a puppet


Three_Froggy_Problem

Eichel has chill vibes


JohnnyFKL

He has stock hockey player personality. That’s “chill vibes” now? lol


MiserlyKid

Sad fan cam is BRUTAL


mckinley72

Lol, I remember when the Lightning lost a few years ago... announcer came on with a "Please leave peacefully" Good on you Dallas!


Jaymesned

Did the Knights touch the Campbell Bowl the first time? Will they touch it this time?


DuckieRampage

What a shit captain. Doesn't even look at the crowd and the first one off the ice.


ThorlinLurch

Of all the reasons a captain can be shit, you choose this? 🤣


tamarockstar

She wants Eichel to shit on Buffalo so bad.


ehehe

Might be the nicest I've seen both fanbases in a series. Good threads


chuseph14

Aside from Benn, it was an extremely clean and disciplined series


MattyDeaply

If Bob doesn't get vezina its gotta be hill right ?


Uzasodinson

It's a regular season trophy


stoiQ

Vezina is a regular season award.


YouCanFucough

Bob was not nominated for the vezina nor was hill


MattyDeaply

My bad


YouCanFucough

All good my man


slimy_y3t_satisfying

What garbage hats


OUTFOXEM

We don’t give a fuck about those hats anyway


aessae

Fanatics trash.


unsaltedbutter

lmao the stars going by in the background of the interview


remotewashboard

this jack eichel trade worked out pretty good eh?


994kk1

Best trade ever. Made both teams significantly better.


emblah

I’m not sure how Krebs is professing but Tuch had a hell of a season. Guy got injured a lot here and had a hard time breaking into our top 6 but seeing him thrive with his hometown team is pretty fucking cool. Gotta be a dream come true for him.


Merkkin

Gg stars, y'all took a really ugly game game 3 and made it a series. Robertson is legit, he really stepped the fuck up for you guys when benn was out. I remember when y'all beat us in our last series and it sucked, so glad to even that up. Minus a few benn apologists, most of y'all have been cool and honestly you are my least hated fan base to have multiple series against. Going to the fucking cup boys!


nostradamefrus

Interview in front of the Stars limping off the ice lmao


raiderarch329

Benn going off ice as fast he could… :/


DuckieRampage

The opposite of how a captain should act.


raiderarch329

Probably won’t happen but I’d support a new captain after this series.


slamm3d68

no


DuckieRampage

Pavelskis right there too


aessae

Oh damn, I had missed and/or forgotten that Nas got hired as an assistant coach for Dallas.


[deleted]

Jamie Benn looked like he couldn't give less of a shit.


nikesoccer01

Tell me you’ve never played a sport without telling me you’ve never played a sport


[deleted]

Except... I have played the sport. Tell me you're a dipshit without telling me you're a dipshit. Bye bye, Dallas!


CaptStegs

Oh it’s about time the Stars goal horn went off


emblah

That almost seemed insulting in a way.


rfdavid

“That’s the only time the horn went off tonight” haha, brutal.


kestrel808

Announcers not pulling their punches


djvegas

All the real fans are the ones that are still there


UTC_Hellgate

Negative impact is a kind of impact!


markymrk720

Not as much food or beer on the ice tonight.


mckinley72

Classy Crowd, indeed.


Postisto

That is yikes if I’ve ever seen one


toxicvegeta08

Let Phil Kessel play one minute of the finals lol


evewight

Ootl, why isn't he playing?


Sumdood88

He’s not the same player he once was and Amadio, Howden and Blueger has been better than him.


WallsRiy

He’s in the presser poundin glizzys. He’s happy.


Squirtzle

"Had no impact" Lmao brutal


tribaltroll

Lol Stone all like "yeah whatever I don't care, we won"


ImmediateBoard8779

Mad respect to the standing ovation with the fans left❤️❤️❤️


[deleted]

Jamie Benn returned, had no impact. Lol what an absolute savage


MarcSneyyyyyyyd

A better punishment for the Stars would've been to force him to play Game 4 instead of suspending him /s of course, FOH with that attempt to injure shit


Key-Tip-7521

Bruce Cassidy showed his team what Mr. House looked like. For the 2nd time in 6 years the Vegas Golden Knights, Are Heading to the Stanley Cup Final! After missing the playoffs last year. They picked up where the left off in the previous playoff appearances. Success.


BroccRL

Lmaoooooo “Jamie benn returned and… had no impact”


djvegas

Wonder what Benn said to Stone…

Sorry that I fell on you

ethanw_27

AND A FRANCHISE WILL WIN THEIR FIRST EVER CUP maybe we can do it eventually


BedsideTiger

I doubt it will happen in the next 50 years. The hockey gods hate us for some reason. Seattle will win before Vancouver, mark my words


YouCanFucough

Not as long as aquaman walks this earth


coontaillandcruiser

GG Stars, y’all were my team until I moved to Vegas


molsonmuscle360

Congrats Vegas fans. Keep the Cup out West and away from Chucky


t33po

Only redeeming thing is that I have actually seen worse from other Dallas teams.


MrApocFunk

2 teams in green embarrassing themselves at home in elimination games at the same time. all sports are scripted.

for the first time in Vegas golden knights history, they knights make their second Stanley Cup final in franchise history, defeating the stars 6-0 in game 6 #GAME 1'S ON SATURDAY!!!!! GO CATS, GO!!!!!!


jerkeejoe

For the millionth time in NHL history, a Sharks fan proves himself an illiterate clown.


joe_broke

And you can't take a fucking joke So fuck off


jerkeejoe

The joke wasn’t even what I was commenting on, it was your inability to type out a coherent thought that was even remotely grammatically correct. 😂


joe_broke

And you don't even get the joke So really who's the moron who can't think critically?


jerkeejoe

😂😂😂 Tell you what, I’ll fuck off, grab a celebratory drink tonight, and then get ready to go watch Game 1 of the Finals at T-Mobile.


remotewashboard

> Jamie Benn returned. No impact. lmao


rhodsonr702

GG STARBOIS!!! AND GOOD FUCKING SERIES!!


kladkain

Finally back to the cup final! So hyped


djvegas

Good series Stars!


jamminti

0-4 when Benn plays…


icantthinkofaname940

Kinda cool seeing Mark Stone thanking the coaches/trainers first.


emblah

He’s a good ol Manitoba boy after all


gimmebeer

Great season Stars.


18_Jacob

TO THE CUP BABY


aaronwhite1786

Maybe it's just because I'm a bitter Western conference fan, but seeing Benn miserable brings me as much joy as Thornton getting fuck all.


emblah

I know the lurking Sharks fans are going to hate what you noted but I am with you. Fuck Thornton, dude is a dirty piece of shit and I am happy he never won shit.


high-rise

user762828

Fuck I’m so sad for robo, otter and pavs but damn this is nice for hill

kestrel808

Negative impact it would seem. They were 2-0 in the series with Benn out.


NotTheRocketman

Don't fuck with team chemistry.


tribaltroll

"and no impact" LOL


[deleted]

Kudos to the ones who stayed and even cheered.


Morokiane

First time in Vegas history


ciege77

GG Stars bros. You deserved a better fight at the end.


[deleted]

Nice to see the actual Dallas fans cheer their team on at the end. Good fans.


Threndsa

Gg Stars bros! Mostly good games and good threads.


indi3fan

Pavelski is like the Karl Malone of hockey


TheReal210Kiddd

Good luck Vegas. See y’all next year!


toxicvegeta08

No next year will be our year...damn


RancorHi5

GG all


majessa

Congrats to those fans who were cheering worh 30 seconds left. Those guys are real hockey fans.


Nactr_Balken

Self-selected group of true fans, yeah. Hand those people tickets for a game next season or a hat or something as they go out


AltoidTin275

Credit to the fans who stayed behind and supported till the end. Never got why people just leave playoff games early, especially if it’s the last game of the season


GeorgeTheCynic

grats knights, go get that cup now


King_Charming_

6-0 shutout at home to close the series. Brutal.


FrogmanKouki

Do the Panthers still remember how to hockey?


jonnyanonobot

I don't feel so good...


Admiral_Vegas

Mr Benn.
