Western Conference Finals

Dallas Stars – Vegas Golden Knights: 0-6

DAL: –
VGK: Carrier, Karlsson (2), Kolesar, Marchessault, Amadio

The Las Vegas Golden Knights didn’t keep the suspense going for very long. After 20 minutes, the dice were practically cast (3-0) in a one-sided game won 6-0. Vegas therefore wins the Western final 4 innings to 2 and goes to the Stanley Cup final.

For the second time in their short history, the Golden Knights reach the bottom step. In 2018, their first year in the NHL, they lost the flag in five games to the Washington Capitals. This time, they will cross swords with the Florida Panthers starting Saturday in Nevada. The Panthers will also be in a second appearance in the grand final. In 1996, they were swept away by the Colorado Avalanche.

The Guardian Adam Hill got the shutout, his second in this series, by blocking the 23 shots sent his way. He was not in high demand. After two periods, the Stars had directed only 12 shots on the opposing net, including five in the middle period.

The Golden Knights completely neutralized the Stars in the first period with a neat and efficient forecheck that ended in a three-goal production. The Stars never recovered.
