The Vegas Golden Knights are off to the Stanley Cup Final after sweeping the Colorado Avalanche in the Western Conference Final. But first, the Knights get to celebrate.
Can’t touch this
Following superstition and tradition, the Knights did not touch the Clarence S. Campbell Bowl when presented with it after winning the Western Conference Final. They merely stood behind it as they posed for photos.
The Knights, after all, know there’s work to be done to achieve their ultimate goal of hoisting the Stanley Cup.

Mark Stone scored for a second straight game after returning in the series from injury, and Carter Hart carried a shutout up until the final minutes of a 2-1 series-clinching win on Tuesday.
The Knights advance to play the winner of the Eastern Conference Final between the Carolina Hurricanes and Montreal Canadiens.
