Vegas Golden Knights pummel Panthers, win their first Stanley Cup

LA Times  

Vegas Golden Knights backup goaltender Jonathan Quick, a former Kings star, hoists the Stanley Cup in the air after his team defeated the Florida Panthers on Tuesday to clinch the championship. “I don’t know how much I’ll remember about the hockey itself but I’ll certainly remember this group and the memories that we’ve shared throughout this year, and the ones that we’re going to make later this week,” Vegas defenseman Alec Martinez, a two-time Cup champion with the Kings, said while surrounded by friends and family on the chopped-up ice at T-Mobile Arena. And maybe it was the Golden Knights’ ability to build a big team with an unusually mobile defense and more goaltending depth than they thought they’d need, and their ability to turn into Stanley Cup champions a group that called itself the “Golden Misfits” in its first season because players had been deemed expendable and were left available in the expansion draft that stocked the new team’s roster. “It was definitely a special way to kick off the night.” At the end, streamers fell from the ceiling, fans roared, and the Golden Knights’ victory song, “Viva Las Vegas,” filled the arena.
