Vegas Golden Knights v. Carolina Hurricanes Stanley Cup Final Preview | The Steve Dangle Podcast

1. The two worst starting goalies?! Freddie has video game stats and has the best numbers of any starting goalie in the playoffs

2. Adam pronounced Nikishin correctly! 🙌🙌

3. VGK in 5

4. I’ll be real it’d sting less to see Freddie win it. This is his 5th season in Carolina, I’m so glad he’s finally got his chance. Marner deserves to win too, but it’d def break the fandom way more and lead to FAR more mockery from the rest of hockey.

5. Anyone who paid attention to Carolina after the Olympic break wasn’t surprised to see Freddie start for the playoffs. Bussi has a fantastic first half but aside from the last couple games of the year he had a horrendous stretch after the Olympic break wasn't

6. K’Andre did NOT have a bad season. WTF are these weiners talking about

7. LETS GO CANES!!!

8. funniest possible outcome is canes win but marner has a legacy series so still gets the conn smythe

9. $500 Marner scores the game winner in game 6 or 7 to win the cup and MVP. The Leaf curse must inflect max pain on the fan base.
   Bank on it.

10. CANES IN 5! LETS GO CANES!

11. Leafs in 4

12. First SCF series since 2023 where no Canadian team is in the Finals.

13. Man Jesse hates Vegas

14. which team will best be able to transition from defense coverage to offense scoring chances and goals?

15. Wow absolute homers for the canes huh? Excited to come back to this later this week.

    Hart has 200 more saves than Freddy

    Canes have a better D core? What??

    You guys couldn’t even say we have the edge in high end talent. You said you almooooost wannnnnaaa maybeeeee say it but but what about the stankoven line?!

    Marner. Eichel. Stone.

    God I hope we win this.

16. carolina in 6 imo

17. Please don’t Las Vegas win they have fake fans

18. Vegas in 7

19. If Vegas’ forwards are that much better, why did they only win 39 games?

20. Vegas in 5 unfortunately

21. Either team in 4 or 6 cus T-Mobile arena was built for cup raising..
    I strongly lean Vegas.. cus I can picture them running away with it, but can't picture canes doing so

22. Vegas in 6

23. Carolina in 7

24. Avs in 4

25. Canes want it more, have less pressure, can deal with pressure better. Torts will blow up after a losing game or 2. Hall > Marner. Marner finally will get outworked and out manned from a non pacific trash team or injured avs team.

26. Vegas in 6!!!

27. This is the Tom Green movie Freddy Got Fingered of predictions because Marner is Tom Green in that movie and Leafs are pain

28. One thing with the forwards is that Canes has more to improve there. Svech, Aho and Jarvis needs to be better offensively, if they do that and Stankoven-line still clicks? Look out.

29. Vegas about to make these guys look stupid, again. Vegas in 4!

30. Take a shot every time they say marner

31. Just based on the fact that Adam treated Jesse's "Canes in six" as a spicy take — like he did last year when Steve predicted Canes in six over the Caps in the second round — I'm predicting Canes in five. Vegas will be the hardest team Carolina has faced this postseason by a wide margin, so I don't expect complete domination like the previous three rounds, but I could see Carolina winning some closely-contested games, maybe losing one game near the beginning, and then closing the door in games four and five to seal the deal. A team doesn't advance to the Cup Final with a 12-1 record if they're not an exceptionally dominant team. This is the first time a team has gone 12-1 other than the Habs winning the Cup in 1968 and 1976.

32. oh no. Leafs nation is cheering for carolina. vegas win incoming

33. Vegas in 6! Mitchie Conn Smythe!

34. I'm with Steve. Vegas in 6. We saw it last series; the teams that face 0 adversity will not be ready for Vegss

35. Vegas in 6

36. Marner was a no show again. 0 pts in games 5, 6, 7 in the WCF 😆

37. Hey Steve, wouldn't that have been 19 games for Montreal. TB 7, Buffalo 7 Car 5. Taking Car in 7, Conn Smythe is Taylor or Freddie. Let's Go Canes.

38. “How many players on the Knights would be the best on the Canes” you guys do know that’s the same pre-series talking points from OTT and MTL right?

    It means absolutely nothing. Championships aren’t won on paper.

39. Vegas in 5, i like carolina better but i think its vegas

40. Carolina in four

41. Canes in 4 because why not.

42. I’ve got Vegas in 6. God I hope I’m wrong. Let’s go Canes!!!!!

43. Adam and Jesse yet again pick against Vegas. Thank you guys. That makes my day!!!

44. Vegas in 6, GO KNIGHTS GO!!

45. I still don't understand how most people still downplay the Canes, bruh. Look at their season! Look at the playoffs! Give them the respect they deserve already.

46. I think the series will come down to the Canes PK% against the Vegas PP% and the production of the 4th lines on each team. I've got the series going 7 games with the Canes hoisting the Stanley Cup for the second time on home ice.

47. Canes in 7, Marner gets a McDavid-esque Conn Smythe

48. Steve, I hope you're wrong!! Carolina in 7!!!!!

49. Definitely not winning the Sparc bracket considering I picket Avs/Pens final 😬😬

50. Knights in 6 💛
