In their very first year of existence too, WTF.

I honestly thought after the expansion draft they were going to finish dead last. Boy was I wrong.

I can (and did, in my playoffs general). they had incredibly favorable expansion draft rules, and got 3 pretty huge players out of it. add in a couple more overperforming and a pretty good coach? MAF MVP

When the NBA is as boring and predictable as it's been the past 4 years, what the hell do you expect?

Vegas was going to the finals even before the season began because the fix was in

NBC and their ratings working directly with the league and the mobsters that own the team

Colorado did it in '96 and won but they were formerly the Quebec Nordiques and were also stacked as hell. An expansion team with a couple of key pieces and not much else on paper doing it is unreal.

Vegas got to make themselves a wonderful team. They are being carried some by MAF, but they have been good all year.

Except the team traded away many of their expansion picks for future draft picks before the season began.

Same, I'm loving the way this team's helped bring the city together. I think the Strip will be crazy if they just beat Winnipeg. If they actually win the cup... forget it.

I think they had a good draft, not a great one, based on the players they got coming into the season.

They just happened to also get lucky with a few of those guys overachieving and having career years, including Fleury. The coaching has been great too, helping bring the best out of these guys.

I love how people are now desperate to insist that the expansion draft they thought was designed to ensure the team wasn't very good was actually unfair in their favour and totally rigged, and that the choices and trades McPhee made that made him a total idiot are now brilliant moves that he knew all along would turn out this way because obviously everyone knew William Karlsson would score 40 goals
