Considering you didn't even know the team existed we will have to ignore any opinions you have about anything to do with the NHL.
It has only happened twice before. 1917/1918 Toronto Arenas and the 1995/1996 Colorado Avalanche.
If you don't count a team moving then the Avalanche win wouldn't count because that was the Quebec Nordiques who moved to Colorado, so really the Toronto Arenas win is the only one.

Not an opinion I know about the NHL.....Nordiques were already an established Team who only needed a goalie and a defenseman to complete their Team. Patrick Roy became the Goalie a hall of famer and Ray Bourque another hall of famer!

1917/ `=1918 is way before my time! 😛 🙂 I am sure you weren't around over 100 years ago either! 🙂 Hockey was a different game over 100 years ago, believe it or not!

The original rules had no forward passing allowed and the puck was square. Weird.

I sense that this is you taking an obscure and disguised dig at the premise of rugby football with built-in deniability.

"doubtful" - perhaps. but possible! besides, it doubtful for any team, really.

2017-2018 NHL season was the inaugural year for the Las Vegas Golden Knights.
They went all the way to the Stanley Cup final. It's possible.

They still lost....It doesn't count here in Canada unless you finish 1rst! 🙂 I had forgot about them though to be honest with you, and they had my favorite Goalie on the Team!

@Very-Rusty

Rusty, may I offer you a glass of green tea? Please let someone else wash the cup and boil the water, and -- even though I would never spit in your tea -- I'm willing to sit in the penalty box while the tea brews in case that might help set your mind at ease.

If you keep talking to the resident spanner like this he’s just going to default to tongue poke emojis and “LOLs”.
