Peur et dégoût à Vegas

Malgré cette fortune incroyable, une telle entreprise comporte de nombreux risques : accélérer considérablement votre fenêtre en raison d’attentes accrues, jongler entre du sang neuf et la loyauté envers l’ancien noyau, et chevaucher une ligne entre la compétitivité et le désespoir pur et simple. Vegas, au cours de ces cinq dernières années, a fait tout ce qui était en son pouvoir pour se qualifier pour une autre finale de Coupe, mais leur empressement à le faire les a-t-il endommagés ? Est-ce que faire tapis chaque année a été à leur détriment ? La course insensée de la Coupe au cours de leur première année était-elle plus une malédiction qu’une bénédiction? Avec la façon dont les Golden Knights ont géré leur succès, cela a peut-être été plus une malédiction qu’une fois. Maintenant, regardez comme cela devient horriblement obsolète l’année prochaine alors qu’ils plongent à nouveau dans les séries éliminatoires.

  1. As a Sharks Fan, I love hearing the Goal Horn We have, especially when we hear it 4 times in 5 Minutes. Go Sharks! (Yes I know We have our problems just let me have this)

  2. The only reason dey made the cup was because Gary Bettman likes em if he liked Canadian teams dey would be in the cup every year and why didn't Calgary win it in 04 because he he doesn't like em like dat goal Calgary could win game six it was obviously in we all no dat

  3. I love how easily the Vegas Golden Knight's management is skewered by messaging Vegas casinos are world-renowned for.

  4. Jack Eichel said he was excited to finally get a chance at the playoffs when traded to Vegas.

    As soon as he gets there, Vegas misses the playoffs for the first time in franchise history. I’m not saying he’s a curse buttttt…

  5. Revisiting this video now that they've traded Max Pacioretty and Dylan Coghlan to the Hurricanes for…….future considerations

  6. After they traded Pacioretty and Coghlan for future considerations today, this video now deserves to be preserved in both the Library of Congress and National Film Registry.

  7. Canes fan here praising the almighty powers of the Tree jinx for gifting my team Patches.

  8. Seeing Vegas crumble with their cap mismanagement and awful culture makes me hopeful that Seattle being typical bad expansion team will be good for them in the long term. It’s already helping with the Shane Wright pick

  9. i love how you can revisit this video every time vegas does a “vegas” move and trades away a big piece for free

  10. Every time I hear about all the wheeling and dealing with unwitting teams that brought the Golden Knights the firepower to make it to the Stanley Cup in their first year, I always think about that other franchise that got too lucky too soon… the Orlando Magic.

    They got the #1 pick in the NBA draft lottery (which, as the name implies, is pure dumb luck) in the same year that Shaquille O'Neal, the kind of continent-shaking player which cities build statues of, entered the draft. He had a predictably spectacular rookie season which saw the Magic barely out of the playoffs. Naturally, this meant that they'd only have one lottery ball in that big massive box and have essentially a snowball's chance at a decent pick… and they got the #1 pick again! Wait, it gets better: After choosing Anfernee Hardaway, a blazing phenom who happened to be best buddies with Shaq in college (i.e. great chemistry from day one), Horace Grant left the Bulls for good after finding life after The Basketball God too hard to take… and the Magic snapped him right up! Let me say it again: a dinky upstart expansion team in a city best known for an overpriced theme park went from an irrelevancy to a title contender practically overnight, by SHEER LUCK.

    Of course, Nick Anderson going into spray-and-pray mode at the the worst possible time would cut their title pretenses short, but they still managed to beat a team with Michael Jordan en route to the finals. This team was young and cool and loaded. Just one or two more pieces and it would be a dynasty. It was only a matter of time. Oh, Shaq's contract is coming up? And because this other guy's making a lot of money on some other team, he wants a lot of money too? Well, all right, it's going to hurt a bit in the short term, but once those trophies and awards start rolling in, he's going to make up for it several times over. The Magic are on the verge of greatness. The Magic are going to roll. The Magic…

    …. just… let… go… of… Shaq?? 😲

    Oh yeah. Apparently the Magic brass thought their unbelievable luck would last forever and ever and they could make all the stupid decisions they wanted and it wouldn't hurt them. You know how the story ends: Shaq signs with the Lakers, MJ rediscovers his mojo and the Bulls steamroll the league for three more years, the Spurs get Tim Duncan and reign over the "transition period", the Lakers pick up Kobe Bryant and launch a dynasty, and the Magic collapse into a pile of hubris and irrelevance.

    Too much luck is a bad thing. Gotta keep your head in the game. You don't pay your dues, you're going to suffer for it.

    (Oh yeah, idea for your next historical perspective video, Tree! 😁)

  11. Damn bro. I’m just sitting here eating my chicken watching a video and you gotta shit on my bills outta no where ☠️
