On Tuesday night, the Vegas Golden Knights routed the Florida Panthers 9-3 in game five of the Stanley Cup Final, securing the franchise’s first title in their sixth season in the league. Former Bruins head coach Bruce Cassidy and two former players were on the team that got it done.
Cassidy led the Golden Knights to NHL immortality in his first season behind the bench after the Bruins brass fired him following their first round loss to the Carolina Hurricanes. He guided the team to a 51-22-9 record, giving them 111 points and the top seed in the Western Conference.
