why?


it totally disproves all theories on how you win a cup

Tampa is my second favorite team but man is that a slap in the face to 30 nhl owners if Vegas wins

not really. They had the opportunity to build a team from scratch with NHL ready talent while starting with fresh cap untainted by bloated contracts.

The only teams that have a chance to do that are expansion teams.

- homiedclown



again, not really.

Marchessault and Smith aren't misfits, Tallon is


Colin Miller and Erik Haula weren't misfits, they were under-appreciated. Minnesota had no choice but to double down on the Hanzal deal and consistently gave him more undeserved ice time than Haula. They were wrong to do that.

Karlsson, Fleury, Theodore, Neal. None of them are misfits, they were just made available, either through a necessary evil to keep other talent or because the GM was a moron.

none of them were top end players


cap saving moves for the other 30 teams

half those guys were on vegas to bail out salary cap issues and they played as a team


and might be able to give 20 or so middle fingers in their cup photo for the other teams

and I hope Fleury is in the center of the picture

Im not saying they weren't but some teams chose incorrectly, and vegas took advantage of that.
