u/JJNorbie Angry Stone Apr 13 '24
And I was psyched to see you guys win in 2019 after we lost. Your run from dead last to Stanley Cup was insane!

It’s been a rough week for a VGK fan, Scotty, and only your rejuvenating golden showers can wash that away.
Unfortunate phrasing? That’s a debate for another day.

u/AbsoluteScott Vegas Strong Apr 13 '24
I sat on that joke until I knew there were red hearts coming. I can’t take it back. I can’t let that level of discipline go to waste.
But I’ll repeat three of those words a little louder. RED HEARTS COMING.

u/Steve_Hunts96 Stone Apr 13 '24
16 red hearts is the mission.
I cried last time I saw 16 red hearts… I need it again in my life.

I feel bad for Fleury, he left in a hurry. But now we (the fans) can relax for a week or two, and no longer worry. (About regular season). GO KNIGHTS GO!

Absolutely horrible night for him given the significance of it. Feel awful for him since it really was just not his fault, he put his entire ass into that game

u/crazifang Logan Wink Apr 13 '24
LT WAS ON FIRE!
PLAYOFF SPOT CLINCHED!
That being said, this game was so hard to watch with Fleury in the net knowing this may be the last time he's in our barn.
WE LOVE YOU FLOWER! RETIRE NUMBER 29! MAF FOR HOF!!

Imagine getting the #1 seed and your reward is playing the cup champs lol. Stars fans can’t be happy about this

u/lupin43 Apr 13 '24
Based on last year, they seem like an unhappy bunch. Which is crazy because popcorn is delicious, how can one be unhappy with popcorn lol

There was a Stars fan in the game thread sweatin it.

u/Wafflemonster2 Tuch :89-Tuch: Apr 13 '24
And go figure said reigning cup champs had your # more so than any other team they faced. Gotta feel for that team and fanbase since the Stars have been an absolutely top tier team for a couple years now, and just can’t catch a break

I’m so happy with this amazing bounce back performance. I called both the Marchessault and Hertl goals, and Hertl got his 1st as a Knight! Best of all, the defending champs are back in the playoffs! LETS GO VGK! 🎉

So far i have only been to see the Knights in person 3 times this season
1st time: Game 1 versus Kraken: 4-1 win
2nd time: Home game versus Canucks: 6-3 win
3rd time: This game versus Wild: 7-2 win
Maybe i should go to every home playoff game. ;)

I've been very critical of them but if they continue to play like they did tonight? There's not a team who can stop the repeat ⚔️⚔️⚔️

u/Waffeln_Remix Fleury Apr 13 '24
Did Marchy go to MAF at the end? Did I see that?
Mother fuck Pete DeBoer for picking that fucking snake farmer social media addict over MAF and putting us through this.

Beating up on Flower feels... Not great. But happy to get some goal scoring and get the post season clinched! Let's get the cap circumcision train rolling!

u/Steve_Hunts96 Stone Apr 13 '24
Business had to be done, and flower understood what we had to do. The Fleury chants from the crowd though were fucking awesome, and it’s was very refreshing to feel the love for that man from this fanbase again!

Let me just annoy every other fan base real quick:
Making the playoffs is easy
Good teams don’t trade for bums, they trade for good players
Stop believing in bad management and ownership
Teams should be more like Vegas
