Stanley Cup in six years what has happened here has been simply incredible not only is Vegas a hockey town it's a championship town congratulations to George McPhee Kelly McCrimmon Bruce Cassidy and most important the players on your Vegas golden knights Mark Stone our tradition for this 130 year old trophy it's the presented to the captain all right [Applause] Mark stone hands it off to the original Vegas goal tonight Riley Smith [Applause] count Smythe winner is going to get it next as Marsha so hands it off to another original Vegas golden Knight William Carlson we welcome in the great one our teammate Wayne Gretzky who was presented to Stanley Cup on four different occasions Wayne described the feeling well as an athlete as a hockey player there's no better feeling than the first time you get to lift the Stanley Cup and as you're skating around with the trophy obviously your teammates are a huge part of that the coaches the fans in the city and then you think about your grandparents and maybe the odd uncle or minor league coaches that helped you get there and those are the thoughts that go through your mind that they all are a big part of you lifting that Stanley Cup 2023 Stanley Cup Final well I was just so impressed by both teams I thought both coaches did an amazing job both organizations deserve a lot of credit Florida played their hearts out they just happened to run up against the team that was a little bit bigger a little bit faster had a lot of depth and their goalie ended up playing extremely well they should keep their heads high they played against the machine in the Stanley Cup finals and they lost to a really good Hockey Club [Applause] on air and off here how well Vegas defended the importance of being able to play without the pumpkin pen but don't break at times yeah just the importance of playing that way and eventually winning like you did so many times a year let me tell you something there's no nothing more fun than scoring goals in the National Hockey League we all love to score goals but I said it last year I'll save this year defense wins Stanley Cups when our team learned in Edmonton how to play defense we became Stanley Cup champions Aiko was a machine back there for an offensive player he was always in the right position the right spot and he was their offensive guy that led with a two-way game and that just trickles through the whole Hockey Club they deserve all the credit they're getting they they didn't take a lot of penalties they killed them when they had to defensively they were strong they didn't give up a lot of two-on-ones ultimately it became Stanley Cup champions Wayne you watch Stanley Cups with an all-time great goaltender and Grant Fjord as Jack Eiffel was having a cup from Chandler Stevenson we saw the photos owner of the series he attended your hockey school and now he's a Stanley Cup champion well we can say now that we put through a Stanley Cup champion through our hockey schools right but you know what uh people in this game are so wonderful he's a great example he worked his tail off he didn't give up he was fifth goalie I know we talked a lot about this he was the fifth goalie on the list and he won a Stanley Cup and listen they could have picked one of four or five different guys to win the cons Smite and he was in that mix no question how do you probably played in the first round he might even had a better chance than anybody but listen good for him what a great story and like I said we finally got a gun they went through our hockey score and won a Stanley Cup but listen I wanted to say to Jonesy good luck to you man we're all going to miss you and we know you're gonna do a great job in Philadelphia and I know Mr Snyder's looking down and he
