Golden Knights looked like World beaters going in,now look like a true expansion Team

[SBR Tony]

What happened ?

[Thrilla]

[tblues2005]

Has it occurred that the Caps are really good.

[funnyb25]

Highly doubt it will happen, but imagine the story if they win it all now, if it wasn't truly remarkable already...

[cincinnatikid513]

i was trying to think what other teams were huge underdogs win title and got so close but lost title game or series

[jjgold]

Caps look too strong

[The Kraken]

I think the Knoghts win once more at home and load the truck, they’ve already overachieved

[SBR Tony]

Has it occurred that the Caps are really good.

was that your opinion after game 1 ?

[lakerboy]

Caps cheated to win this year. They sold out to the trap of New Jersey

[trytrytry]

glass slipper

[Hman]

Washington just on a mission.

The real championship was Caps beating the Lightning in Game 7

[TheMetsSuck]

I can still see Vegas winning this series. It will all come down to game 6. I really like their odds to win game 5 at home.

I give them all the credit on getting to this point, and after winning game #1 I thought they were on their way of winning the Cup
and nobody could tell me different.

after game #2 I said to myself, of course it could happen, Caps are a good team as well, it's a Championship game, there's a reason why
these two teams are there.

Game #3 I thought was a given, Caps have a good home record, plus winning game 2, they would play off of that.
But I thought Vegas would come back in Game 4. what I saw was that they were flustered and rattled.

This happened

Ya can laugh but VEGAS will win the cup !!

this reminds me of the jets knights series, winnipeg won the 1st game at home then lost the next 4 games losing game 5 at home

Caps do what Vegas doe better. Quick, Forecheck, backcheck. It's how they defeated Pen and the Lightning. Vegas looks tired. Their defense is trash since game 2. Stupid, elementary, rookie mistakes over and over almost every Caps possesion. It's hard to watch.

I expect them to muster one more rally for their home game but honestly I'm not even sure about that. I think my big play is going to be Caps game 6 at home if it gets that far.

[JIBBBY]

Wave hello and bye bye to Vegas.. They are getting absolutely spanked!!!!! Kinda like what we are seeing happen with the Cavs now in the NBA..

Vegas -130 to -135 across the board
I saw a dip at Pinny at one point, then it went back up

[cincinnatikid513]

i can see it already lakerboy washington and wash -1.5 goals guaranteed

[lakerboy]

i can see it already lakerboy washington and wash -1.5 goals guaranteed

No nice try though

[alling]

Took the Caps to win the series at +135. Caps had the tougher strength of schedule, faced adversity in every round while Vegas cruised to the finals. Looks like the West is crap. And Vegas are far from a super team. Caps have way more talent. Didnt even think it would be close and looks like Im right. Not over but the fork is in.

[Bdolan33]

Vegas was never ever going to take a 6 millon dollar hit, with a series of games to avoid it. Never.

[jtoler]

vegas happened

[l3randonf]

My call is... Game 7 is forced. Goal goes in off Niskanen. Vegas wins. Casinos win all their money back from all the high Vegas fans leaving the game.

We've seen 2 games now where Vegas just can't finish their scoring chances and they have just looked off. If they can hold home ice and get a little luck, it's all very possible.

[Art Vandelay]

Love them in Game 5, then the pressure shifts to Wash for Game 6, wanting to avoid a Game 7. Hard to believe the Knights can't win one road game in this series and the Caps haven't been that strong at home in the playoffs. Uphill climb but win tomorrow and they have a legit shot!

[Grivas_Digeni]

Ok those who got them at 100 to 1 are still sitting pretty. Wishing they hedged after gm1 obviously...

[goduke]

They ran into the caps. Like I said after the caps beat Pittsburgh the playoffs were done and everyone was playing for second place

[sNoWmAn2169]

The introduction of the Knights to the NHL allowed the entire league to tee up on them, or to try and control the game. NHL is going in the direction of the NBA, all leagues are. Not many were able to score by pulling their goalie in the last minute, no matter how lopsided the competition or how meek the moment. Not sure it will work for hockey.

[jtoler]

its best they never got this far in year 1 unless they were gonna win it, now the bar is set so high to a place they may never get again

[DrunkHorseplayer]

It's amazing but it appears as though Holtby's fortunate save (no, it wasn't a great save) late in Game 2 put Vegas in a funk. If Neal elevates that puck, Vegas is probably up 3-1 right now.

[JIBBBY]

As good as Vegas is at home I still think the play is to fade them tonight if you must bet it.. The OVER is never a bad idea to touch either in this series....

[l3randonf]

The final twist on this epic ride will be a thrilling game 7 Vegas win
