There has been no Canadian team that won the cup for the past how many years? If Seattle gets a expansion team they probably have better chances than Vancouver for winning the cup lol.

A Canadian team has been to the finals five times since: Vancouver x2 (1994, 2011), Calgary (2004), Edmonton (2006), and Ottawa (2007).
4 of those series were decided in game 7 (Ottawa lost in 5).

Why is there such a LONG break ... the Eastern side played the full 7 games. We have to wait till Mon, nothing on Fri/Sat/Sun night. Bad planning, arena in Vegas overbooked? Long wait = lose interest ... bad planning on someone's part.

heard either on 1040 or 650 that before the season a vegas casino had odd of the knights winning the Stanley cup 500/1. One person put down $5000 for vegas to win and no the casino has told him they would give him $1,000,000 cash if he takes the money right now. I would assume the person would be a big gambler to take the money right now since he could end up winning 2.5 shmilllllll

IE Mcphee pretty much making side deals with teams that wanted to protect certain players by getting picks or trades in return. Their whole team is pretty much made up of decent talented players.... | Speaks to the parity of the NHL today, or maybe you can also consider it diluted/watered down. Especially in this team game where no one dominant player can drive his team to a championship from the beginnning of the season. I've always held the belief that it's a teams 3rd and 4th lines that win them Stanley Cups; the good teams' 1st and 2nd lines cancel each other out. Goalies getting hot at the right time helps too.
Also in the salary cap era, we can see the mess that many teams have gotten themselves into. VGK having a fresh start with no baggage, in fact the ability to absorb other teams' baggage, is a huge advantage.

Game 1 was fun to watch for sure. Who would have thought that there would be 10 goals scored tonight?

I just wanted to watch a good hockey game, not some bad sword play whatever that was. I just turned it off. Oh well, it’s par for the venue.

Holtby stood on his head in game two. That stick save in the third period was sick!
Special teams was the difference in this game. Ovie scores on the power play. Vegas does not score on a 5 on 3 powerplay.

Hopefully after that save the giant horse shoe that's been up Vegas' ass all year has fallen out. The Caps are clearly the better team.
