Wow, that was pretty much a clinic by Vegas. A couple of gift goals from Florida's poor defense, but it didn't really matter. Game 2 was much more due to Vegas' solid play than Panthers blunders. Other than a single flub by Martinez and a juicy rebound yielded late by Hill, Vegas was unstoppable.
The Golden Knights are clearly the better team, but of course the better team does not always take home the prize. They do actually play better on the road, however, at least record-wise. I expect they will hoist the Cup, but not in Miami.
