You probably don’t need to read this to know how incredible the context of the Vegas Golden Knights sweeping the Los Angeles Kings was, but just in case — that’s the winner of two of the last five Stanley Cups losing to a team that didn’t exist a year ago.
At first glance, Vegas is the feel-good movie of the year. They’re a much closer rendition of The Mighty Ducks than the actual Anaheim Ducks — who played more like the movie’s rivals from one of the lesser sequels (animated series included) if Sunday was any indication.
