The Vegas Golden Knights are storming toward the Stanley Cup Final with a roster packed with former Columbus Blue Jackets—Brandon Saad, William Karlsson, and even head coach John Tortorella, who led Columbus to a historic run in 2019. Saad was a key scorer before his trade, Karlsson rose to stardom in Vegas after his time in Columbus, and Kolesar, though never playing for the Jackets, was drafted by them before joining Vegas. With the NHL’s interconnected talent pipeline on full display, Vegas now eyes the final showdown—while Columbus looks ahead to the draft, holding the 14th pick.

Vegas Golden Knights storm into their second Stanley Cup Final in franchise history after sweeping the top-seeded Avalanche — and this time, they’re bringing back key players like Ben Hutton, who was on their 2023 championship team, and new coach John Tortorella, a Finals veteran with a Lightning title in 2004. For Nic Dowd, it’s his first-ever Finals appearance — and he’s already making his mark with four points in 16 playoff games. Now they await their opponent: either the Canadiens or the Hurricanes, who currently lead 2-1 in their series.

Vegas shocks the hockey world by sweeping the Avalanche to reach the Stanley Cup Final for the third time since 2017, chasing their second championship despite being one of the fewest-win teams ever to get this far. A fiery John Tortorella, who took over after firing Bruce Cassidy, led them to a 19-4 record with one OT loss — but not without controversy, as the team faced fines and lost a draft pick for playoff media violations. Still, they’re playing with a handicap and ready to prove resilience can triumph over odds — just a few wins away from glory.

Vegas Golden Knights are heating up as the NHL’s most hated team, surpassing the Florida Panthers in the rivalry of villainy. With a dominant playoff run, ruthless roster moves, and a reputation for aggressive management, Vegas blends on-ice success with off-ice controversy — fueling fan hatred that’s actually good for the league’s drama. Their “evil empire” persona, built on winning and non-hockey decisions, makes them the modern NHL’s top antagonist — and fans are loving every minute of it.
