Wow - one of the most dominant shifts i've ever seen and it ends with a goal. Vegas is going to win the Cup and whether you hate them or not, they deserve it.

No shit.

Vegas has been a juggernaut all series long. The only saving grace that Florida had is out this game.
 
I'm glad I was on team First Time Winner this playoffs, because once we got here, I was guaranteed a win, but ultimately I preferred Vegas, and this has been a great postseason from that perspective.

Also, this taking the Flyers out of the record books is one more reason why we shouldn't be living in the past anymore, so there's that going for us.

There was a time when Vegas, and Winnipeg had a playoff series that I felt both teams would stay atop of the West for a while.

One fell off dramatically, but Vegas has done a good job. Credit where it’s due.

Vegas has been a great team for every year they've been in the league so far. Shows how mickey mouse ran the Flyers are.

One draft pick playing for Vegas is absolutely nuts.

I saw someone make a point about Vegas earlier on Twitter. They don’t really get credit for moving off players they didn’t really see fit from a salary cap/contractual standpoint. The conventional thing to do would be just deal with it out of the sake of “doing the right thing”. But they haven’t even when the conventional thinkers have claimed it will have players sour on them (which it hasn’t because players want to win).

Stone again. Bob is cooked but its almost unfair to pull him. Not sure they have a choice.

They've been brilliantly managed from the get-go.

After the 1st round it feels like more games were blowouts than close. Congratulations to Vegas, they finally got over the hump. Marchessault (so?) should probably get the Smythe, but I can see Eichel getting it on name recognition. Stone and Hill are in the convo as well

To be fair 90% of us and the league laughed at the majority of the team they picked from jump street, and they've just continued to perform greatly
