Twitter amazed by Golden Knights punching ticket to Cup Final
They did it.
The Vegas Golden Knights booked their ticket to the Stanley Cup Final on Sunday with a 2-1 win over the Winnipeg Jets in Game 5 of the Western Conference Final.
The idea of an expansion team reaching the big show is difficult to comprehend. So when the Golden Knights actually made it happen, Twitter was left astonished.
I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS!!!

I can’t believe anyone beat the Jets. I can’t believe it was in five games. I can’t believe it was Vegas. What is happening.

What world is this? The only way the Knights can bring me to sanity is if they do the right thing and touch the damn trophy!

An NHL team just made the Final with David Clarkson on its books. #vegasborn

I can’t believe the NHL fixed it to have Ryan Reaves score the clincher for Vegas, in his hometown, to have them move on to the SCF.
