The Most Hated Team in Hockey Is Winning Again..

May 14, 2026



Vegas was already the NHL’s most hated team. Then John Tortorella took over and everything changed. Jack Eichel is dominating, Mitch Marner looks unstoppable, Carter Hart is silencing doubters, and suddenly the Golden Knights look terrifying again. But if Colorado is waiting next… this playoff run could define the entire NHL season.

  3. THE MOST HATED TEAM IN HOCKEY IS EDMONTON OILERS. THE WHOLE PLANET REJOICED WHEN MCDOUCHEBAG GOT THE DOG SHT SLAPPED OUT OF HIM IN THE OLYMPICS. THIS IS A HORRIBLE TAKE ON HOCKEY.

  4. I want my Panthers revenge on Vegas for 2023. Thats my only beef with them. Theyre the only hated team left on my list. Tampa, Boston and Edmonton are scratched off. The conference final will be good. I think Colorado will beat them though. I picked Buffalo to win it all but they're going to need to wake tf up for that cause the Habs while young, are deadly. They will be a problem for years to come.

  6. The Route 51 shooting happened on October 1st, 2017 and VGK's first game ever was October 10th. There was an entire ceremony, the players lined up and took a moment of silence, some of the players spoke about the event and the city. People cried, we all cheered, And that's all it took for the Knights to be our crown jewel. No other team will ever come close no matter what.

  18. You're right! The whole town agrees…the VGK Management is the most hated in the NHL and for good reason. We, the VGK fans hate them too, because they're absolutely ruthless. But to be fair, I think you really have to separate those jerks from the players, who for the most part, are class acts. If you are a true hockey fan, you have to admit that what the VGK 'Misfits' have accomplished has been truely remarkable, despite what scumbags the execs have proven to be.

  20. Hated because their teams did not protect players and Vegas spent some cash other than sucking for 10 years “paying their dues”. That is why other teams are trying to copy the knights arena environment.

  22. It's also worth mentioning that while it's overshadowed by the King's historically bad OT performances this season, the Knights also had a historically bad time in OT. Specifically, they were poor at 3 on 3 and the early goaltending struggles meant they were bad in shootouts. Playoff hockey is 5 on 5 overtime, and has no shootouts. Both of these facts greatly benefit the golden knight, and also make them a better team than their points show in the standings. However whether or not they can beat the Presidents Trophy winners without home ice advantage is another story

  23. I'm a complete noob to hockey and even noobier to the VGK. Having moved here 6 months ago, I've become a fan of hockey and even more so the Golden Knights. I'm still learning all the terminology etc, for example, I had to look up what 'icing' was on google. I don't know the drama with Marner when he was in Canada, but just watching him from when I started, it's hard to believe that he had haters up there. He, to me and my limited hockey brain, comes off as an all star mvp. He seems like he sees the rink from a birds eye view, his puck handling is so awesome and he scores and assists.

  24. Kelly mccrimmon will be the most sought out GM in the league if he becomes available. The knights were walking dead all season because of problematic coach and atrocious goaltending until front office made coaching change. Everyone thought this team would go out in the first round. I don't care who wins next round, I'm just happy to see my team made it this far.

  28. Here’s a thought: if the front office staff of every team acted like the one at VGK fans would be a lot happier, there would be more parity in the league, and everyone would be happier. If anything, I think people are upset that the vegas front office figured out how to win in ways that didn’t mesh with the established idea of how to win. But good news for some teams- looking at Florida, when ownership decides that the modern sports model of winning is going all in every year and kicking the can down the road perpetually, hey you start to win. And win a lot. I think hockey in general is the best sport to watch after never watching it prior to vegas getting a team, if you want to grow the game then improve the game, and that starts by getting more front offices to look like Vegas and Florida.

  29. Cap manipulation? Are they following the rules? Well, if YOUR GM does not know how to work the salary cap within the framework of the rules (which are the same for everybody) then maybe your team needs a new GM! Lots of teams do retentions in exchange for assets. IT'S LEGAL!!

  31. Remember when everyone said after the expansion draft Vegas would be a terrible team outside of goaltending? Like 20 wins in their first year bad?

    What happened to that

  34. Most hated. lol Hardly been around and peeps think they are that important. Like callings the city the sports capital of the world…bnecause of gambling? LOL one title. Barely got a football team, no NBA team and waiting for an MLB, but the sports capital of the world.

  37. Today's video is a video of the Las Vegas Golden Knights, who were a dark horse team. I really enjoyed this video! ^^ I never dreamed that the Golden Knights team would become a dark horse this season~ Starting with 😮 Stone, Achel Maner Dorf Hart really came up with one mind!! ^^👍👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🏒🏒🏒🏒🏒
