DeBoer brings Stars to face former team with trip to Stanley Cup Final on line MORE:

Now there is much more on the line for DeBoer and the Stars than revenge and a cold one. They visit play Knights in the Western Conference Final, the first game is Friday night in Las Vegas. The Knights are a minus-140 favorite to win the NHL playoffs series, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. Cassidy said he needed to get to know his new players after getting the Knights job, but that wasn't necessarily the case when DeBoer was hired in January 2020. He previously was on the Sharks' bench in Vegas and San Jose developed an intense rivalry.
Behind Hill is Jonathan Quick, who won two Stanley Cups in Los Angeles. Quick was a late-season pickup by the Knights. “It’s something that Ryan and I have talked about really since the beginning of the season," DeBoer said. “This is the goal, and he’s another guy that’s checked his ego, taken less, both on the power play and in minutes played, in order to move our group forward and to have this opportunity.”Vegas made the Stanley Cup Final its first season, but hasn't been back. The Knights made the final four in 2020 before losing to Dallas in five games in the bubble in Edmonton, Alberta.
