On paper, the Jets and Predators are superior teams that can outgun and outskate anything the Knights can throw at them. Now, its more of a 60/40 advantage than an 80/20 thing, but Vegas will be underdogs in the WCF.

As for Vegas getting this far being an indictment on the league: Well, their roster is considered to be the castoffs from every other team. At least players that their original teams didn't care enough to have around. And said castoff expansion roster kept kicking everyone's ass and made it to the conference final.

So it's a sign that the talent in the league is so watered down that an expansion team can pile up many wins and make a deep playoff run or that the front offices across the board are filled with imbeciles that can't properly evaluate talent that their castoff turn out to be studs that are stars. And it's probably both.

(It also helps that Fleury has gone superhuman. Great goalies can carry a team far)
