After reaching the Stanley Cup Finals in their inaugural year, the Vegas Golden Knights were unable to embark on a deep run this time round after losing to the San Jose Sharks in a historic and truly bonkers Game 7.
Vegas bolstered their roster significantly by trading for the likes of Paul Stastny, Max Pacioretty and Mark Stone, so therefore 2018-19 could be considered a disappointment for the Golden Knights who have a very deep and talented roster.
It is important, however, to focus on the positives and look forward because this roster is still a genuine Stanley Cup contender and will be for the foreseeable.
