Vegas wins this in one of two ways: either they sweep the Caps in 4 quick games, or they deliver a soul-crushing game 7 victory on an error by Ovechkin (either a giveaway in the neutral zone leading to a goal, ringing one off the post that comes back and results in a goal, or an own-goal).

Stanley Cup Final
  • Vegas Golden Knights in 4 or 7
  • Cup-winning goal by Jonathan Marchessault

You can only pick 4 or 7 not both

Nah, I'm picking both. :) I care more about the narrative than the points.

(For the purposes of your contest, I'll go with 4 games.)

With capitals winning Kong has lock in a last place position as Vegas can't win in 4 games.

Vegas is now going to win the series in either 5 games (with the remaining 3 being blowouts featuring an invisible Ovechkin), or 7 grindy games.

I’m late on this, but my perfect series is gone.

Tonight is a must win for Vegas, and a guaranteed game 6 if they can pull it off.

Looks like it's going to be a game 7 win.

I hope it does, but it’s looking bad right now.

This happens so often in hockey playoffs. Washington is peaking at the perfect time, and Vegas peaked a series or two too early.

Donkey Kong Wens 3rd place; kit finishes in fourth. The latter came up three wins short of a Stanley Cup.

Congrats to the CAPS! Should be interesting at the WH press briefing tomorrow or when it happens next. Two sports championships for Trump.
