Around the NHL - Playoffs? We're Talkin' 'bout Playoffs?

[Dreakon13]

Maybe it's been too long since I've watched a Cup final game 1... is it normal to have this long opening, or is it just Vegas putting on a show?

 

[Moskau]

Someone eliminate this team so I don't have to watch this shit again.

 

[Paxon]

Vegas' intros are the worst things ever

Too much glitz. If you want to impress me with the pregame show, drop the jumbotron.

 

[joshjull]

Vegas we had a nice run but I’m leaving you now to cheer for my Caps

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

Vegas turning to the dark side and setting a new low bar standard for SC pre game ceremony's.

I believe I heard the intro announcer called them "america's team" in the opening segment.

Does that mean the Caps are Putin's team?

Someone eliminate this team so I don't have to watch this **** again.

You know what? As a 50 year old, rather conservative guy, I actually hope the opposite.

The showmanship has been a breath of fresh air and I think more teams may want to take notice.

I mean, it’s not Sabrestooth repelling......

If it was the Sabres putting on this spectacle you’d guys be creaming yourselves.

Michael Buffer!!!!!!

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

Vegas relying on its strong hockey heritage and legacy by bringing out all of its ex-hero's.

Too bad Alan Thicke passed away........

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

If you are really depressed by all of the hoopla, just think about how much your 2018-19 Sabres-Golden Knights game tickets will sell for on Stub Hub next season!!

 

[Push Dr Tracksuit]

I hate Vegas but they can put on a show

 

[Buffaloed]

I went to the circus and a hockey game broke out.

 

[Der Jaeger]

I didn't pay for admission for this show....

 

[joshjull]

Hopefully the game doesn’t get curfewed now.

 

[SundherDome]

That was a hell of an intro. Well done.

 

[TheMistyStranger]

Eh. Expansion team having the best season for an expansion team in major sports history, in a city known for performances and glitz. Let them have their fun.

I sure wouldnt. It is incredibly lame, full stop. This air is about as fresh as the rest of Vegas.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

At least 20+ stick chops by Vegas on Cap players in the first 2:10 of the opening period.

 

[old kummelweck]

If the Golden Knights win, Gary Bettman will be mauled by a white tiger during the cup presentation.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

Liked Holtby's positioning on the right post on Vegas shot from on the goal line. Tight vertical squeeze along the whole length of the post.

 

[5 Minute Major]

No, it really isn’t lame. I saw a whole lot of people having a whole lot of fun.

I guess if you find fun lame....well, yeah.

 

[Chainshot]

Oshie a little too casual on back to back plays.

 

[joshjull]

Come on dumb ass. Stupid penalty to take
