Winnipeg is going to be insane for this series.

Although ticket prices will be extremely high in Vegas this is the first playoff competitor with passion high enough to make a significant impression in T-Mobile.

Let's go Vegas!

Man, I'm very, very sad that I didn't heed this advice...

Amazing that Winnipeg and Vegas were two teams that had some of the worst odds to win the cup before the start of the season.

[jayswin]

Really hard to pick a winner now. All I know is has potential to be the most exciting series of the playoffs.

Both teams are extremely fast and forcheck relentlessly. Great goaltenders at both ends, too.

[Erick Estrada]

I think the Jets benefitted from shaky goaltending against the Predators and Fleury will be the best goaltender they faced by a long shot. That said I'm taking the Jets in 7 games as I believe they are the better team.

I don’t know if I can handle the two conference final threads having different title formatting.

Golden Knights are unstoppable.
Golden Knights in 4.

Mine is better.

Go Vegas! Don't see Fleury letting in as many stinkers as Rinne did.

Vegas in 6

The clock strikes midnight for Vegas. Jets in 5.

This is gonna be a great series. Every series that Vegas has gone thru, it gets tougher and the Jets will likely be the toughest of them all. The team that advances to the Finals will win the Cup. It's hard to choose a team since I want a Canadian team to win, but I've been cheering for the Golden Knights since the playoffs started. So, go Vegas go!

Vegas in 6!

[Vinny01]

I just got back from Winnipeg on a work trip and was so jealous of their run.

I was hoping for Vegas from the start of the playoffs and nothing changes.

Unlike the Canucks, Oilers, and Leafs I don’t totally despise the Jets so this isn’t that painful

The series has 7 games written all over it. The two teams are almost mirror images of one another.

[N-E-B]

I hate Vegas. Like really hate them. But Winnipeg’s fans and the media circle jerk around them have turned me off of the team this year. Go Vegas.

That said, Jets in 5

[Canada 02]

I think the Jets win this and the Cup

Vegas needs to jump all over the color black for home games this series.
It goes great with "Golden" anyway and is part of their color scheme.
Black out vs white out.
Someone make it happen!!!
