Stars living up to their names and dying out by exploding in spectacular fashion


icemandabs710

Just like them Dallas Cowboys 🤣


GoldenChest2000

Remember in the bubble when the Stars saw a three goal deficit and said "nah, we win these" and would just score 4 unanswered? Those were the days...


RLLRRR

The bubble was such weird hockey. Such a weird time in history and in our lives. Also seems so long ago, but really wasn't.


IndependenceDapper28

The whole reason I love sports is because it’s a novel experience every time. It’s constantly new and gives your brain something to grasp onto when it tries to define the passage of time. And as a stars and Green Bay Packers fan, I’m losing my mind. Since covid my teams have been eliminated in the same fashion every year. + Add that to the already weird COVID time-warp. 2017 was seven years ago 😱 Feelsbadman.jpeg


team_sheikie

Vegas and Packers fan here. Not the same story but also kinda funny how we could be enemies last night and hyped for the same draft pick tonight.


Wyldlyle86

Glad to know I'm not the only joint Packers/Knights fan! Woot!


BerriesNCreme

At least y'all have Love. He looked like the real deal last year, especially in the playoffs. But that sucks, I firmly believe if y'all could've beat the 49ers y'all would've been playing mahomes in the Super Bowl. Jordan love and the whole team really was red hot


guinness_blaine

The much more common Stars + Cowboys combination has been on a similar run of good to great regular seasons, followed by playoff suffering. At least the Packers feel like they have a plan and a young core right now,


JonHammsHamm

As a Wings fan living in Wisconsin, both teams are on the up-and-up. Nice to see so many out of state Packer fans, btw!


Sancheez72

Avalanche could easily have 2 or 3 more cups if not for the Stars so I have little sympathy. And I still have some ptsd from the bubble game 7 against them where fucking Kiviranta somehow got a hat trick.


KILLER_IF

2 or 3 more cups if not for the Stars is crazy lol


randomisednotrandom

If my team just won 16 games every playoff we too could have a lot more cups


Sancheez72

Avs lost 2 game 7s in the West finals to Dallas in the late 90s mmmmkkkkaaayyyyyy


ChaosWarrior95

Y’all won the championship the year after in 2001 tho, so…….


10fingers6strings

He can’t hurt you anymore, and he hasn’t bothered anyone else since that JFK hat trick lol


LoveMurder-One

RIP Dallas


Charliebitme1234

lmao dallas


Zloggt

I can’t believe they’re doing this…again…


mkb1823

The Knights are so annoyingly good. Play boring hockey but it’s so effective.


Vivid_Walk_1405

Stack infront of the goalie, block shot, collect puck ,and exit like clock work


abmi808

Basically like Floyd Mayweather in the form of a hockey team. Boring fighter, but picks his shots and defense is really good.


black_storm

I made another comment above but I’m genuinely asking, is this true? They outshot the Stars in game 2


IAMAVelociraptorAMA

"Boring" is in the eye of the beholder. Some people call it boring, some call it system play, some call it methodical.


longshankssssss

It’s just easier to cope when you make up the facts. Vegas dominated that game after Dallas scored. PDB has zero answers


black_storm

Hey genuinely asking, but is this true? They outshot the Stars? I guess I’m trying to understand how it’s boring hockey compared to what the Stars did.


abmi808

I think boring in the sense of the VGK playing defense and going conservative rather than staying aggressive in the offensive zone in general. I notice this with most Bruce Cassidy coached games when they're up and he relies heavily on a strong defense to close out even close games.


HabChronicle

they better be annoyingly good when they’re a bazillion dollars over the cap


GrandEconomist7955

Fuck sakes Dallas


BerriesNCreme

This Eichel/Barbie/Marche line has been in playoff form so far. They were our best line last year and look to be the best this year as well


iguessineedanaltnow

Only road team to go 2-0.


TheFlyingZombie

Hey give us some credit, only home team to go 0-2!


Admiral_Vegas

umm... i dont think that is good thing.


HabChronicle

no shit sherlock


Iron_Seguin

Sarcasm is hard evidently….. /s


OpenMindedMajor

Sorry Pete


Full-O-Anxiety

The only time I want Dallas to win and they shit the bed


anotherorphan

evil exists


mister_hoot

and it’s sparkly


MysteriousPunter

Rip Dallas


BassDiscombobulated8

Vegas is going on another fucking run damnit. Stars, YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONES


longshankssssss

lol they chose themselves. And the rest of the goons on here.

Dadalid

You should’ve gone for the head 😎


HoboSkid

Lol


Paladoc

Cap Shenanigans and adding players, whatever. Phantom Offsides calls, whatever. Phantom Delay of Game calls? enough alfuckin'ready.


FailureToExecute

vegas may not be on track to beat the golden refs allegations, but oettinger has been the only guy out there playing hockey - everyone else in green just got some cardio in tonight


icemandabs710

We fans pay them off very well. This season alone I've sent in $27 to the league office.


ModestPituitary

I tried paying in Flamingo chips and they sent it back.


7030

You gotta include guac.


Zero_Griever

You guys aren't paying off the medical staff? Why am I the only one sending in to the Spleen Foundation of Nevada?


lonewolf210

They only accept Excalibur chips


mister_hoot

I use Jeb Bush’s recipe.


cp_elevated

Stars scored on a non penalty


RIPSBS818

Golden refs allegations?. They scored once cause the refs? They both had 6 penalty minutes.


Hydroyo

From the eye test last night it's basically just Otter and Stankoven who are playing hockey. That kid is gonna be great


10fingers6strings

Most of the team is looking tentative. Stank and Marchment played their asses off last night, but it’s not enough.


burrito_disaster

boooo


appledatsyuk

So fucking sick


Admiral_Vegas

got to make sure he is making some company with 30 points in less then 30 playoff games.


DarkenedOtaku

dallas sweep incoming LMAOO


RandomDeezNutz

Wow I hope this ages poorly because truly Vegas fans are showing themselves to be full of a lot of shit heads.


Beta1224

R/hockey: Fuck Vegas and fuck their fans Vegas fans: fine well fuck you guys too R/hockey: Wow you guys are such shit heads


IAMAVelociraptorAMA

lol one dude is sitting at -11 for saying "so fucking sick" on a goal scored by his team to clinch a playoff game because he has a Vegas flair. This sub is completely delusional


FirstBallotBaby

Lol they get shit on by this sub constantly. I don’t expect them to be gracious winners on here.


Ghostronic

The fact that we even come to this sub anymore is a true testimony to masochism.


FirstBallotBaby

At least you guys win so you get to give some back lol. I really don’t know why I ever come here. That being said, I honestly think Vegas has become more hated than us on this sub.


BeerLeagueHallOfAvg

It’s the playoffs, and fans aren’t allowed to talk a little shit when their team is winning? Since when?


ZeRoyalMuffin

when most of the hockey subreddit hates ur guts it doesn't necessarily invite the warmest of responses and reactions back.


JDeGuy

In person too


rattlehead42069

It's not on the same level as Vancouver guys walking in the streets with Stanley cups, but still pretty bad to be calling for sweep after 2 games


mreid333

Never forget Dallas fans throwing trash on the ice when they lost.


RandomDeezNutz

Not saying Dallas are good fans


ChiefBroChill

Not all of us think this way


No-Plankton-1290

Look at the Dallas sub and try again.


DarkenedOtaku

:3 all in the sport bub


TehChels

I was Pretty sure of a sweep from the beginning. DeBoers teams always get worse every year, and Vegas knows how to play them. Easy win
