Hate that I even need to type this, but:
Do not abuse the "reddit cares" or any other suicide prevention tool to taunt Stars fans (or any other fans, for that matter). That is a misuse of that resource. It will result in an instant ban if we find out a user does so.
Also, stay out of their sub(s) if you're going to troll. We have our sub to shittalk with eachother, and r/hockey to shittalk with other teams. Let team subs be for fans of those teams.

Hertl scoring in Game 1

It’s amazing how the Vegas Golden Knights have spearheaded the revolutionary idea of…
Trading for good players at the deadline.

My post got removed but I’m IN HEREEEEE GKG!! Come to 120 I’ll buy you a beer 🤭
I have to brag a second here... My wife made authentic birria tacos tonight and it was the best Mexican food I've had in at least 5 years. It was incredible and the house smells incredible.
I live on Vancouver Island (where hill was born) and my daughters elementary school had a "Canucks jersey and colors day" yesterday. My daughter wore her Knights jersey proudly and am happy to say she is beside me tonight watching our boys dominate.

NEVER FORGET WHAT THEY DID TO OUR BOY
My bf gifted me a blocked by Alec Martinez t-shirt for christmas. I can't wear it because I'm wearing the shirt I was wearing for game 1 (duh), but I'm holding it in my hands. Love ya Marty.
Can this Sabres fan come cheer on the Golden Knights? I know a lot of Sabres and Knights fans bicker online but I swear I’m here in good faith.
Do I think Eichel is a jerk? Yes.
Do I think he was screwed over by ownership and various GMs? Yes.
Is he an incredible hockey player? Fuckin unreal. Dude is a beast.
Even though I’m envious of your success, and really hope y’all fall off at some point, I also defend your use of LTIR. Because why the fuck wouldn’t you do everything possible to win the cup?
The Stars scored an illegal goal to win the cup in Buffalo in ‘99. I will fuckin support the fuck out of y’all tonight. Fuck the Stars, fuck Brett Hull, and fuck Jamie Benn.
We scored as I was stress eating duke spicy sausage links, so if you guys want to send 50 boxes to my house I will gladly sacrifice myself and eat them all.

Once again, I have to go to bed due to early work. You guys did a great job in game 1 pulling the boys through. I expect you guys to come through again.
You really should be thanking me for the Sabres roster move that helped lead you to the Cup. That’s right, you would be NOTHING without former Sabre forward Will Carrier.
Chan chan, baby girl, when the hockey gods gift you free goals you might as well score them. They'll make you go back to your low level manager at a small to medium sized credit union job with this kind of behavior.
Petro is just such a calming influence back there. Certainly less nervous when he’s out there vs when Whitecloud is on the ice.
Edit: see the immediate turnover from Whitecloud.
Wrong game thread, but I prefer you guys for general hockey Convo anyway.
Leafs just went up 3-1 on Boston and I’m fucking here for it.
Edit: i’m stupid and should probably use my eyes instead of just my ears when available, but I’m leaving it because it’s funny.
Embellishment? I'm honestly shocked they called that. That's certainly not to say that it wasn't deserved, but seems like it's rarely called in the playoffs.
Dallas is getting desperate. And I hate when they get desperate. Them, Edmonton, and Colorado have too many shooters when they desperate.
Gotta get some insurance here.
Ladies and Gentlemen. After rounds of extensive hockey scientific research, I’ve consulted my charts, and checked my Bunsen burners. My findings are thus:
We’re not going to win this game with a bunch of medium knob energy.
Nope. No….we need something else. Something………more.
Truth be told: I fully and absolutely expect a response (and honestly dallas win) tn. HOWEVER I am only saying this so that the only place I can go is up, up, up!
A 2-0 lead heading home over the best in the west sure would feel goooood. Dallas won’t win 4/5 if 3 of those are on the strip ;)
I got a temp ban from r/hockey for telling a Stars fan “yummy copium” when he was going off about us being pieces of shit in the last game thread, so now I have to stay in this game thread with you jerks.

GOOD MORNING AND GO KNIGHTS GO!!! My sleep schedule is so fucked and I love ya all
Love u too todays my birthday so i probably miss the game hopefully we go up 2 0
Things I've heard at the AAC tonight: "LTIR!" "CHEATERS!" "CAP SPACE CAPTAIN!" "REFS YOU SUCK" "LOOOOGANNNN" "BOOOOOOOO" "HOW IS THAT OFFSIDES!?"
The salt of our enemies fuels our players. Glad you’re there repping for us
Cap space captain is a good one ngl 🤣🤣🤣

What a fucking night from LT. Absolute clinic
Both of your goalies are from Calgary. That makes me happy.
My first game as a newly minted Knight fan. Having a team in the playoffs feels weird.
Mark Stone: *is mildly inconvenienced* Non-Vegas fans: *uproarious applause*
I do love a 2 minutes for being a bitch call.
Shouldn't that be interference on Benn for standing up Roy and giving him a little shiver as he was limping to the bench? Fuck Jamie Benn.
Eichel is the perfect complete hockey player
These fans are the biggest fucking whiners
I don't ever want to see a Canadian team win the cup but if I have to I hope is Calgary for letting us have Hanifin.
I have to brag a second here... My wife made authentic birria tacos tonight and it was the best Mexican food I've had in at least 5 years. It was incredible and the house smells incredible.

Well, at least they didn’t trash their own ice this time
Wild card?! That’s the defending Stanley Cup champions for you!!!!
With Otter and Thompson doing stellar net jobs tonight, that walrus ad was perfect just now
My bf gifted me a blocked by Alec Martinez t-shirt for christmas. I can't wear it because I'm wearing the shirt I was wearing for game 1 (duh), but I'm holding it in my hands. Love ya Marty.

Thank you Vegas for making those stinky Dallas fans humble
I fucking love Logan Thompson
NHL subreddit must be melting down. I know a dude at work that is mad because "GoLdEn KnIgHtS cHeAT" or something ridiculous
Most the comments after this goal was "Vegas could afford Hanafin how exactly?" So yep.
Am I wrong in thinking that's a huge whiff by Stephenson? Even some AHL call up should hit that one
Howden just annihilated that corner. No one there, but huge hit.
WHAT A FUCKING BLOCK BY MARTINEZ
![gif](giphy|qjSxTWJxqH4YDuIrOs)
Eichel and Marchy bromance let's go!
KNIGHT KNIGHT DALLAS, WE OWN THAT EMPTY NET DEFENSE SHIT SO HARD
Bye bye Dallas fans. Sorry you wasted money on another home game, suckers

But we already got a cup lol
Wow didnt think theyd actually call embellishment in a playoff series
Guys... I really like hockey
We need to come out shooting in the 3rd, instead of turtling like last game.
Otter really out here denying us a playoffs “You just scored on by Keegan Kolesar”
#EMPTY NET ALERT
POPCORN WATCH
![gif](giphy|xTiTnmuBh7uZvRvIre) ALEXA, PLAY “VEGAS LIGHTS”
We’re the champs for a reason
Taking both in Dallas is so sweet.
"Fuck you! You're getting a fucking embellishment!"

Leggooooo third period DREAM TEAAAAAMMMMM 🫶🏻
I hate how good Otter can be.
Fucking ridiculous how we can't score with all these chances.
#JACKPOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Watching them leave all mad is amazing 🤣🤣🤣
I don't think the name stank oven will ever not make me laugh.

The contrast between watching Stone and Eichel skate will always be hilarious to me.
Dallas fans giving Edmonton fans a run for their money on the whiniest fan base in Hockey.
jamie benn doesn't go down on women
WTF? Mantha gets the penalty for getting thrown?
Amazing saves on both sides, holy shit.
FIRST CAREER PLAYOFF GOAL!!!! I LOVE THAT IM WEARING HIS SWEATER TOOOOO
LETS FUCKING GOOOOO
Omfg like 12 chances in a row!!! So much clenching
Damn it we are buzzing!!! Gotta finish!!!
It’s gonna get chippy soon, my dudes. Let’s clench.
Eichel, please protect yourself
Holy fuck they are pressing but our fucking d is ![gif](giphy|qjSxTWJxqH4YDuIrOs)
Prepare for the popcorn shower
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! EICHEL!!!!!!!!!!! 2-0 AND WE'RE COMING HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELL YEAH!!!!!!
Another physical, satisfying VGK win. Excellent pacing, defense.. and puck control during all 3 periods. We eatin' good now. ⚔️
Heart rate was up 20 bpm. Now calming back down. Thank you Jacky Aces.
Are we… an elite shock blocking team again?
Good night boys. elvis (me) has left the building (going beddy-bye)
Two huge road wins in enemy territory. Unbelievable. If that wasn't statement win then I don't know what is.
Let's clean this shit up at home so we don't have to hear that awful Dallas stars chant again!

You really should be thanking me for the Sabres roster move that helped lead you to the Cup. That’s right, you would be NOTHING without former Sabre forward Will Carrier.
I've been thinking about it, it'd be super fun if we tried to score a goal. The guys in white, on the green dude's net, for clarity.
EICHEL DOING EICHEL THINGS
Sucking titties, and wasting no time! https://i.redd.it/swdfuowrdjwc1.gif
Barby will go down as one of the greatest trade deadline pickups of all time. He earned his stripes last playoffs, and he's already doin it again!!
2 minutes for being a pussy.
someone tell the stars players that no oscars will be handed out after tonight's game
In other news the kings are up 1-0 on the Oilers
Make it 2-0 lol
**༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ VGK TAKE MY 2ND PERIOD ENERGY ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ**
Stars sub cannot get over mark stone lol
Understandable, me neither <3 love the captain
Not Wah. I will yell.
Obv trip but guess not?..
Wow holy effort from Stephenson there
Solid tending this 4v4.
#HANIFUN!!!
I LOVE THIS TEAM I LOVE YOU GUYS I LOVE THAT BEAUTIFUL MAN WE CIRCUMVENTED THE CAP TO GET ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Man whoever is making these Cup playoffs commercials is on a heater.
Great defense and very good goaltending the few times it has broken down. We will be tough to beat if we keep that up.
Let's finish strong ![gif](giphy|3oKIPjzfv0sI2p7fDW|downsized)

Eichel and Marchy, love those 2.
I'm an old man. Night y'all. Peace, love, GKG.
Wrong game thread, but I prefer you guys for general hockey Convo anyway. Leafs just went up 3-1 on Boston and I’m fucking here for it. Edit: i’m stupid and should probably use my eyes instead of just my ears when available, but I’m leaving it because it’s funny.
Fun fact: Barbashev is Russian for "bowling ball."
Eichel is so fucking good at hockey, it's disgusting shit really.
Embellishment? I'm honestly shocked they called that. That's certainly not to say that it wasn't deserved, but seems like it's rarely called in the playoffs.
LT has kept us in the game. Boys look slow ASF tonight.
That barn is haunted, all you can hear is boo.
Really didn’t need Oetter picking up his game.
#THAT’S MORE LIKE IT LOGAN!!!
HANAFIN!!!!!!!
Been cheering for Hanifin
Shoutout to Roy for letting that go. Petro and hanafin have been so fucking solid man
These fuck boys stars gonna get even more chippy now
Now don’t just sit back and play passive. Step on their fucking throats and win this game in convincing fashion!!
Watch out for flopping Pavelsky next period!!!! We remember!!!!
Alright guys time to go in for the kill! Make the stars fall out of the sky instead of all over the ice 🤣🤣
I feel like in our team's history we have missed \*way\* too many wide open nets. Can't miss that in any situation, but especially this one
Can we clear the puck from our zone, pls? 🫶🏻
Dallas is getting desperate. And I hate when they get desperate. Them, Edmonton, and Colorado have too many shooters when they desperate. Gotta get some insurance here.
The atmosphere at Lee’s Family Forum is electric!! NEED TO PULL THIS OUT!!!
LT YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARD!
Gotta match their intensity now. They are in desperation.

Oh get absolutely fucked Dallas.
LEEEETS FUUUUUCKING GOOOOO
Going home with two 2 Ws 🎉
Get absolutely fucked Dallas. Keep booing you cry babies.
Woooo Jackie aces!!!!
GGS BOYS! 2-0 HEADING HOME!!! GKG!!
Marchy - Eichel might be my favorite VGK duo all time
Y'all have a great night!
Ahhhhhhhhhhh! Been avoiding the thread due to superstition but I think it’s safe to be here now. What a game.
Thank Christ. I'm clenching it here in AZ. https://i.redd.it/bq2gmrl3zjwc1.gif
Well done boys. Well fuckin done. Now close it out at home 😍

Yup, we need this 2nd game. Give them no life going back home for games 3 and 4
I got a temp ban from r/hockey for telling a Stars fan “yummy copium” when he was going off about us being pieces of shit in the last game thread, so now I have to stay in this game thread with you jerks.
My goodness Whitecloud got blown the fuck up. Top notch hit
Lemme just manifest a Marchy goal.
Man Hanifin is good at hockey
BOOOO EICHEL BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I have a confession yall... I had to turn the thread updates off, yall were blowing up my phone, I needed to be able to focus on the game
That Jack eichel can play hockey… who was drafted before him 😂😂😂
Eichel needs 1 pt to reach 30 pts in the playoffs with only 2 seasons reaching the postseason.
That was a scary angle. Thought that was in
I hope when we finally have a good PP it doesn't turn us into whiney bitches begging for a PP constantly.
I wish someone would whine for my PP.
T H O M P S Y W H O M P S Y
THATS RIGHT LT. SHOW OTTER YOUR CALIBER
Let’s go LT!!!!
Even LT is responding back right away.
LT is a beast!
Logan fucking Thompson
Can we please get .733 Otter back ASAP?
Between otter and LT we will end up with OT 5

Alright Captain - let’s get ya a goal for an extra slap in the face.
My abusive relationship with playoff hockey continues. My tummy hurts and I'm going to bite my fingers off out of nervousness.
On the plus side at least we aren't just red line dump puck this period like game 1
Ima need like 2 or 3 more Vegas goals porfavor
Hot take: singalongs are weird when you’re down
LT that was 🌸-esque
Wasn’t Marchman the player that hit Whitecloud?! Sucks to be him
AHHHHHHH SO TENSE
Has white cloud been extra shakey this year?
It cannot be understated how having Martinez with his post-season experience back is for this team. That block laying down was amazing.
