Vegas Golden Knights sweep Colorado Avalanche, advance to Stanley Cup Final

sportsMay 27, 202661745

The Vegas Golden Knights completed a four-game sweep of the Colorado Avalanche by winning Game 4 of the Western Conference Final 2-1 at T-Mobile Arena, advancing to the Stanley Cup Final. The Avalanche entered the playoffs as the Presidents' Trophy winner, so Vegas' 4-0 series victory represented a postseason upset over the NHL's top regular-season team. The Knights now move on to compete for the Stanley Cup, capping a dominant Western Conference performance and extending their run as one of the league's top playoff teams.

The Golden Knights are less than a decade old and I am already tired of them

A stunning exit for the Colorado Avalanche, who become the 13th consecutive Presidents’ Trophy winner to come up short in the Stanley Cup playoffs. This might be the most shocking of them all.

I want to know what the heck happened to Colorado they didn't look right all series, and getting swept?

As a Jets fan, I’m so happy Chevy couldn’t convince Nelson to come to Wpg. Shades of Kevin Hayes.

That series did not make any sense. Colorado just looked out of sorts

Brutal. As a friend said “Vegas is the Evil Empire” Can’t stand them.

The VGK are slimy and have gotten away with a ton of shit that no other team has. Yes, Evil Empire, Carter Hart, how dirty they play, all of that. I still think the Panthers are worse. Although, I don't recall them getting the extra benefits that Vegas has. I hate them both. #LetsGoOilers #GoAvsGo

I’m more upset that the rapist gets to move on to the Cup Finals than the Avs being swept. Carter Hart deserves NOTHING.

The difference in broadcast TV inventory between this year and next is pretty significant. This year: an entire NBA conference final, the NBA Finals and the Stanley Cup Final on broadcast TV. Next year, only the NBA Finals.

If there’s one thing we’ve learned over the last 9 years… Doubt the Golden Knights are your own peril. My column on @theathletic.com ⤵️

A team from the South or Las Vegas will play for the Stanley Cup for the ninth time in 10 years.

Well. The Vegas Golden Knights are going to the Stanley Cup Final with a rapist as their starting goaltender. This is absolutely the worst timeline.

Carter Hart, from the Las Vegas Golden Knights, was one of five charged with sexual assault in the Hockey Canada trial. Last year at this time he was testifying in an Ontario courtroom. This year, he's playing for the Stanley Cup. Are we going to talk about this? www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/...

I think we have to pull for … Montreal. It’s the antithesis of Vegas, a cursed place built by the Mob and an ecological and ethical nightmare, and the Habs are the greatest franchise in NHL history vs. these upstarts.
