The Vegas Golden Knights are your 2023 Stanley Cup champions!
On Tuesday, the Golden Knights finally lifted the Stanley Cup after completely dominating the Florida Panthers 9-3 in Game 5. While the Panthers were able to make it a one-goal game early in the second period, the Golden Knights scored four-straight goals in 10 minutes to put the game away for good.
And what a game it was. The Golden Knights dominated the Game 5 from puck drop, as Vegas’ relentless attack was just too much for the Panthers to overcome.
While Golden Knights fans knew the Stanley Cup was theirs from the second period onward, the moment the clock hit double zero was absolutely priceless.
