In their remarkable five-year existence, the Vegas Golden Knights have emerged as a surprising powerhouse in the NHL. With only one missed playoff appearance, they have secured three division championships and two conference championships, establishing themselves as formidable contenders.
Since their expansion year in 2018, the Golden Knights rank second in playoff wins, an impressive feat for a relatively new team.
On the list of most playoff wins since 2018, the Boston Bruins rank fourth with 37 victories. They sit above the Dallas Stars (35) and below the 2022 Stanley Cup Champion Colorado Avalanche (43), the Vegas Golden Knights (50 and counting), and the back-to-back Stanley Cup Champion Tampa Bay Lightning, who boast an astounding 61 wins.
While the Bruins have had several opportunities to compete for the Cup in the past five years, they have fallen short multiple times. Despite their impressive playoff wins, they have yet to claim the ultimate prize.
As the Golden Knights make their second appearance in the Stanley Cup Final, their rapid ascent in the league is nothing short of remarkable, considering their recent entry into the NHL.
