Vegas Baby!!!
One of the things I don’t understand is how Vegas, while not the underdog, hadn’t been picked to beat Edmonton or Dallas.

Here’s a sampling of the Dallas pick.

It’s been mind boggling to see how Vegas hasn’t been picked.

Vegas won the Conference and Pacific Division.

Someone explain to me how Vegas gets dumped on.

And look, I’m a homer. My hockey fandom started midway through Vegas opening season. I know I know enough to look like a complete imbecile.

I’m happy Florida is in the Finals I’m ready for the battle.

GK's Goalie Hill letting in softies. And the rest of LV thinking they can win by just showing up. Can Stars rally back? May the best team win the series (without controversy)

Meanwhile, the Panthers are resting up and slugging down beers. Panthers have a way better chance to beat Dallas than LV.

I agree, that 3rd Dallas goal was soft. Yes, it changed direction slightly off of Pietrangelo's stick, but if Hill were square to the shooter, it wouldn't have made a difference. 4th goal was just a lucky bounce of a D-man's skate, right to the Dallas player's stick. Hill did make some spectacular saves otherwise. Game could've gone either way.

Would like to see a Game 6 without anyone getting decapitated (save for perhaps the refs).

Betting on sports can be entertaining but except for a very few it is money losing experience. Casinos were bet on the souls of sports bettors.
