Bet all my Vcash on a Florida win tonight... The allure of the South Florida golf courses will be too much for Vegas.

If Engvall and Mikheyev played like that they'd still be in Toronto.

Damn, they already gave up? I guess the Florida comeback is inevitable might as well play it smart. Good on you.

I have with great difficulty managed to obtain the script for tonight's game.....

Once upon a time, during the thrilling Stanley Cup Finals, the Vegas Golden Knights found themselves locked in a heated battle against the Florida Panthers. The tension was high, and the stakes couldn't have been greater.

As the series reached Game 3, the Vegas Golden Knights, known for their fierce determination on the ice, encountered an unexpected twist. It just so happened that their star players, in a bizarre turn of events, had decided to skip the crucial game and go golfing instead!

Yes, you heard it right. The Golden Knights, in all their hockey glory, had apparently mistaken the Stanley Cup Finals for the "Golden Golf Invitational." Instead of lacing up their skates and hitting the ice, they were found leisurely strolling down the fairways with golf clubs in hand.

The news of their absence spread like wildfire, causing a mixture of confusion, disbelief, and amusement among fans and pundits alike. The hockey world couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of professional athletes exchanging their jerseys for golf polos and helmets for visors.

Meanwhile, as the puck dropped for Game 3, the Florida Panthers found themselves in a rather unique situation. Instead of facing their formidable opponents on the ice, they were left scratching their heads as they watched the empty Vegas Golden Knights bench from across the rink.

The commentators, struggling to make sense of the comical situation, couldn't help but inject a dose of humor into their play-by-play commentary. They quipped about the Golden Knights "teeing off" rather than "taking off" on the ice and wondered if they were aiming for a hole-in-one or a goal-in-one.

While the Golden Knights enjoyed their impromptu golf outing, the Panthers decided to make the most of the situation. They practiced their stickhandling skills by maneuvering around golf flags, attempting to score goals using putters, and even imitating golf swings with their hockey sticks. It was a truly whimsical sight to behold.

Eventually, the Golden Knights realized their hilarious mistake. With golf balls safely tucked away and clubs stored in their respective bags, they rushed back to the arena, eager to join the game they had unintentionally skipped.

As they stepped onto the ice, the crowd erupted into laughter and applause, welcoming them back with good-natured jest. The players, now sporting smiles instead of their usual game faces, shrugged off their golfing adventure and rekindled their focus on the Stanley Cup Finals.

In a twist of fate, the Golden Knights rallied together, showcasing their exceptional hockey skills and determination. Despite missing a whole period of play, they managed to tie the game and send it into overtime, creating an epic showdown that will forever be remembered in the annals of hockey history.

Though the Golden Knights ultimately lost the game in a nail-biting finish, their golfing escapade became the stuff of legend and a source of lighthearted amusement in the hockey world. It served as a reminder that even the most dedicated athletes can sometimes get caught up in the allure of a perfectly manicured fairway.

And so, the tale of the Vegas Golden Knights missing Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals to go golfing shall forever be etched in the memories of fans, reminding us all that laughter and unexpected detours can sometimes make the game even more enjoyable.

TLDR, vegas goes golfing, but still force OT, but lose in OT but everyone just remembers they went golfing.

VGK a no show for Game 3 because they thought they were in Sunrise for golf.

No worries, the Panthers will be warming up the golf carts when you guys arrive.

Ive a feeling they called ahead to get them warmed up after Game 1.

Hope the course is close to the stadium as the Knights sometimes don't make it back on time.

 

[IceNeophyte]

They will show in the 3rd in their classic "too little too late" fashion.

Yeeaahhh, we got a special course for you right nearby the arena,

It’s just on the other side of the expressway, in fact.

 

[RussianGuyovich]

i still miss the fried chicken at the gas station on alligator alley

 

[VivaLasVegas]

Or may not show at all, since the Knights have laid at least one stinky egg in every series.

The Gator ate my ball.

 

[Mathews28]

I thought the Knights were going to call up Kucherov's t-shirt maker and put in their order for something like "Thanks for the Cup, Gary" or "Thank You Referees"

 

[Tufted Titmouse]

Easy win for the Cats tonight, including a Bob shutout

 

[forsbergavs32]

GDT is open

 

[TheBeard]

I expect Florida to come out in game 4 with swagger after winning this game. They'll be cocky and feel like they have the momentum.

I expect Vegas to not give a shit and realize they need to put together 60 minutes of a better game and will get to that game from minute one.

People keep saying this as if teams go into some games just not caring. Sometimes you’re just off, sluggish or unlucky. Neither team has played their best this series. It’s the grind of the playoffs .

[ChanceVegas]

The Gator ate my ball.

Indeed.

 

[Hockeyholic]

Game 4 is the biggest game of all.

We will see if momentum truly does carry over. I personally think it can.

There has to be some doubt in that VGK locker room.

 

[holy]

Unbeaten in OT, you love to see it.

 

[BattleBorn]

Not going to disappear because we lost, but if I said anything bad during this game that bothered you, hmu now so we can argue.

gg Florida.
