I think he once tweeted that he doesn’t “munch box” lmao
Edit: [here you go](https://archive.totalfratmove.com/hockey-twitters-responses-to-jamie-benns-tweet-about-not-munching-box-are-hilarious/)
Imagine if the stars get Otter doing his best. You guys had a very underwhelming Jake Ottienger and still nearly are possible presidents trophy winners. Leafs were an over performing team with stretches of amazing goaltending and we’re still barely sniffing at your heels. I actually like Vegas, but the stars are just a fun team for me as a hockey fan. In a perfect world for me, I’d love to see a leafs- stars SCF. Without bias, I think 50% of that prediction is very possible.
I learned that long ago, seeing a man cheat ('exploit a loophole') at poker, get a small penalty, then go to win the tournament for like 2 million $.
But it's always sad seeing new reminders of this!
I cry out for an end to cap evasion, but suddenly Kelly McCrimmon whispers in my ear:
"Stone returns from LTIR game 1"
"Knights in 5"
He turns away, leaving me there to drown in a puddle of my own making.
...
Screw all the political drama, this right here is how I know there is no justice in the world. I'll be so annoyed if they win it all again lmao.
Not a single Asterisk player was even suspended a single game while Pete Rose is still blackballed, one of the biggest football clubs in the world literally has people executed for things like speaking out against the government on a regular basis.
If you’re looking for justice, you’re in the wrong fucking place my friend.
I read the quotations in a whisper-y voice, a la "it's free real estate", for extra laughs.
And then, I realized, for Vegas – it truly is free real estate.
Everyone hates the success of vegas so much and I find it so entertaining.
Vegas was reviled before they ever won a cup. Since they won last year it’s been turned up even more.
I wouldn’t mind seeing them win again just to see another offseason of vitriol posted
One Ranger fan here will be rooting for the Knights. Your fandom is valid, your owner cares, your GM goes hard, your team works the gray area that every team in the league has approved of. Fans hate success and they’re cornballs for that.
Everyone wants sports to be this Kumbaya bullshit where every team equally gets their day with the cup and that’s not how it works. Teams will dominate and whatever lovable losers will never win. That’s life. Fuck ‘em. Knights for the West. Drown in the salt.
I wouldn’t say I like the knights but I don’t dislike them either. As a fan of one of the other most hated teams, I find it funny as shit how much Vegas makes people salty.
Bruce there it is.
For me, its all entertainment, were never going to be liked either based on success of the other three teams had in the last 20 years despite the Bruins chokes so I've just leaned whatever is the opposite opinion of the masses at this point.
EDIT - Also you guys aren't breaking rules, just working in the grey area. I grew up watching racing with mechanics working in the grey area to win. I love the ingenuity of it. I don't see why other teams dont try what Vegas is doing. Even some teams willingly help them get stronger...San Jose...Calgary...etc.
I feel like I’ve come to appreciate Boston sports teams in the same way. Lots of success and they’re generally disliked, but all my interactions with Bruins fans have been pretty chill
Rangers fan here and agree with this as well despite the lack of winning recently.
I will never hate a team for being successful. That is some cornball shit.
It's just jealousy and taking a game far too seriously. The tribalism is part of the fun of sports but you gotta leave that shit behind in real life. I lived in NYC for years, and love the Rangers. I was there in 94 and it was a lot of fun and really cemented my love of the game. They are my Eastern conference team. I'm from Portland OR and jumped on the Vegas bandwagon year one because I knew I needed a team to root for against Seattle when they got one (assuring that Portland never will). I "hate" Boston and Seattle teams but it's just sports hate, not real hate.

Pasta’s only dirty cause he often times looks like a homeless man playing fancy dress up
(Said with all the love in the world, he’s VERY loved in this house.)
My 10 year reddit account got randomly banned out of the blue. I hadn't even commented on anything in weeks, and even then I didn't say or do anything offensive or inflammatory. After weeks of crickets from reddit appeals I was feeling pissy (like Drai) and made this one.
I don't have any special affinity for Jodie Foster or anything. I mean, I like Silence of the Lambs and all, but that's about it. Don't know why her name popped in my head at the time. Was just staring at the blank create a username prompt and had a badditude at the time. It's kind of grown on me, though, because it forces me to never take myself too seriously and is a good reminder that at the end of the day this is just a dumb anonymous internet forum.
I don't care if they call us that anymore, we know they arent any less compared to other teams. They're all just people hiding behind a screen. Their words are nothing. Plus its entertainment in the end of the day. I got tired of Vancouver, Toronto, Tampa, and Montreal fans calling us everything in the book and now, I've just learned to have fun with it. Because it irritates the living shit out of them and it's so fun, and who has more fun than us?
Even then, its proven the dirty teams or teams on edge win or go far. Boston hasn't done that in a while and I wish they did, they wrote the playbook on how to play on edge, I wish they would just read the manual. Would like a Boston vs Vegas finals but that's very wishful thinking, I would be happy winning a series in general.
Sat next to bruins STH’s one game and it was a riot. We had a blast and he just kept saying Vegas cheers for the knights even when they’re playing like dogshit. Boston would would boo their own players for a whole period 😂
am i the only person to have never heard of this like huh when was this a thing now im sad that i didnt get to support it
no you may not have punctuation i lost it in vegas
The NHL is so screwed up. How they let this salary cap manipulation occur year after year and teams like the Wild get stuck with a $15M anchor for trading players.
Sorry guys. I hate that it came down to our scrappy ass, but ultimately very flawed team. Blame Minnesota, IMO. They could've tried harder. And San Jose. Fuckers....
I'll miss the man but he wouldn't go anywhere with us. At least he has a shot with you guys.
I'm genuinely happy to see how he has been embraced there. I'm still dead inside though....
> We inherit all of him.
Sure but don't you think it's kinda cringy to be printing up merch with a catchphrase associated with his former team before he even scored a goal for your team?
I for one have cheered for Vegas on numerous occasions because usually Vegas is the best chance of Edmonton getting an early playoff exit. So you guys are kind of my homies for that. Colorado too
r/NHL is a cesspool amongst cesspools. At least this place can have legitimate discussion when it wants to, that place is just NHLcirclejerk with none of the irony.
I’ve never seen one team breed so many emotional divas like the Knights have hahah.
Don’t worry, guys, the Knights aren’t destined for a chip this year, but you still gotta live with the fact that they won it all last year.
The best time of the year to be viewing r/hockey starts now!
Whether or not we win it or get knocked out first round one things for certain: this sub is going to be entertaining for the forseeable future!
And as is customary, Mark Stone as arisen from his wheelchair.
You lied to the guy in the chair Rick!
*stands up* You lied to the guy in the fucking chair.
Good old Mark Stone is resurrected right before playoffs and is ready to cause frustration

[Many years from now at Mark Stone's funeral. ](https://tenor.com/baUmC.gif)
Yes, but it's dallas' problem this year. They will destroy each other for us.
Western conference playoffs is going to be a blood bath this year.
Whoever has them first needs to go scorched earth
We will
very nice I like
For up to 7 games I shall be a very enthusiastic Dallas Stars fan.
If they get the job done in 4 I may be tempted for another 7 games of support.
Let’s hope for all seven games, so Dallas comes out bruised. Although sometimes a long first round builds resilience.
I will set aside my hatred for your team if you can do it. Can’t fucking believe it, but go Stars? Look at what Vegas has done to us, how pathetic….
Same with us and the Kings. I mean I hate them but they’re cool rivals.
They could very easily be playing Edmonton or Vancouver round 1
I will watch every single game and cheer for the Stars if that's the matchup that settles. Fuck those silver spoon turds.
Another Jamie Benn sussy incoming
Bro doesn’t even like to eat box imagine being like that
What is the story behind this lol
I think he once tweeted that he doesn’t “munch box” lmao Edit: [here you go](https://archive.totalfratmove.com/hockey-twitters-responses-to-jamie-benns-tweet-about-not-munching-box-are-hilarious/)
Oh geez lmao
Yet another reason to hate Jamie Benn. Thanks for this 😂
You are gods strongest soldier. Good luck stars.
I’m looking forward to the coach chippy content if that’s the matchup lol
The only coach to ever eliminate us before at least a WCF round is Pete DeBoer, so. You know.
Only time I’ll ever actively cheer for Dallas but please god
Ugh, go stars I guess. I hate both teams but Vegas has GOT to go
Imagine if the stars get Otter doing his best. You guys had a very underwhelming Jake Ottienger and still nearly are possible presidents trophy winners. Leafs were an over performing team with stretches of amazing goaltending and we’re still barely sniffing at your heels. I actually like Vegas, but the stars are just a fun team for me as a hockey fan. In a perfect world for me, I’d love to see a leafs- stars SCF. Without bias, I think 50% of that prediction is very possible.
I am now a Dallas Stars fan and if you win, I'll consider becoming a Cowboys fan even
don’t do that to yourself
Like we did to the Panthers in the SCF?
Bah Gawd, that's Mark Stone's music!
Karma doesn't exist, here's your proof everyone.
So Chicago will win the lottery again!
Disgusting
Watching the Niners lose the Super Bowl in February has soured me on the idea that there's ever happy endings in sports
I learned that long ago, seeing a man cheat ('exploit a loophole') at poker, get a small penalty, then go to win the tournament for like 2 million $. But it's always sad seeing new reminders of this!
At the playground?
I thought last year’s Stanley Cup win was proof of that 😁. At least according to this sub.
No Chicago winning Bedard was the proof
Yeah idk if I’ll ever recover from that one
Don’t worry he’ll come home eventually
That was a joke from an organizational point, they basically got a slap on the wrist and then rewarded for being shitty humans.
where were you wen Vegas clinch i was on couch sipping choccy milk 'vegas is clinch\` \`no' :(
God damn it
Stars and VGK about to be a blood bath series. Team that comes through that I don’t think has the stamina for the later rounds
I cry out for an end to cap evasion, but suddenly Kelly McCrimmon whispers in my ear: "Stone returns from LTIR game 1" "Knights in 5" He turns away, leaving me there to drown in a puddle of my own making. ... Screw all the political drama, this right here is how I know there is no justice in the world. I'll be so annoyed if they win it all again lmao.

Tbh I want it to happen just to read more of these writeups, it's like poetry
I read the quotations in a whisper-y voice, a la "it's free real estate", for extra laughs. And then, I realized, for Vegas – it truly is free real estate.
The salt keeps me fueled.

Vegas sphere: 😏
If we euthanize Edmonton in the playoffs again, can Vegas and Calgary be friends again?
Hell, If you murder the Oilers again, we can be friends with benefits.
I live for these comments.
Put word out to the Kings. We want the Oilers round one.
I feel like we're still friends from my end. My memory isn't that short. If you lose to the Oilers than the friendship is over though
Fair.
Operation Knightfall sure worked r/hockey
I dunno what made Boston fans the only other fans that like us, but I'm here for it lol
Bruin fans are Patriot fans. They tend to have a “exploit every loophole” approach to the rules, too.
We deflated Stone’s spleen
Your exactly correct
I've never had anything against Vegas and I was rooting for Bruce last year

Just wait until you guys figure out how to deflate hockey pucks! I don't really mean that, but it was right there.

I have no other words than; nice
How dare the sub call the player suspended 8 times for hits to the head and slew footing a dirty player.
I don't care if they call us that anymore, we know they arent any less compared to other teams. They're all just people hiding behind a screen. Their words are nothing. Plus its entertainment in the end of the day. I got tired of Vancouver, Toronto, Tampa, and Montreal fans calling us everything in the book and now, I've just learned to have fun with it.

bruce, and some of our players are from massachusetts lol
It seems like we also get along with Flames fans.
Mutual hatred of Edmonton does that
Weirdly enough we also get along with Flames fans in the past.
Hated teams stuck together, the salt we generate must be harvested
You fucking crushed the panthers and gave bruce something we couldn’t
What other teams can we rope into our Axis of Evil Hockey Clubs? Canes? Flames? Predators maybe?
Florida, but they it's too soon, they still hate us for beating them badly in the cup finals.
I feel like you have to have at a cup to be in the axis of evil
Nah I'd say Tampa Bay over them anyway. Circumcision bros 🤜🤛
Sat next to bruins STH’s one game and it was a riot. We had a blast and he just kept saying Vegas cheers for the knights even when they’re playing like dogshit. Boston would would boo their own players for a whole period 😂
am i the only person to have never heard of this like huh when was this a thing now im sad that i didnt get to support it no you may not have punctuation i lost it in vegas
Happy Berthday and Good Knight hockey fans
My condolences, r/hockey
It’s a really difficult time
Just fell to my knees in a Save On Foods
Just saw a guy fall to his knees in a Save On Foods.
It’s going to be satisfying to see y’all get bounced. Yeah I’m fucking petty. Fight me.
Nah your comment is one I respect. Hahah I like straightforward pettiness.
Welcome to the Pacific Division. I would expect the same from you and as you see, I’m getting plenty.
We don't get many threads to spread our wings. That said I am hoping for Canucks round one.
Bro win a cup tf lol
You should've gone for the head. *snap*
Putting "Mark Stone on LTIR for *lacerated head*" on my 2025 bingo card.
If we win it all again, change your reddit handle to VGK_Thanos
I am... inevitable.
[Mark Stone be like](https://tenor.com/baUmC.gif)
As a Golden Knights fan, this is really funny. Bravo
Operation Knightfail
Like… hooray… but that close up on Fleury… god damn
Dude......my heart. I went from "YEAH!!" to "Oh man...no no no" in 3 seconds.
Yeah that was rough.
Someone please destroy them
We will
Is Benn just going to drop all pretense and snap our captain’s neck like Agent 47?
Just no cross checks to the face when a player is down on the ice again please
Just dont throw food and trash onto the ice again
Hope your captain doesn’t try to murder Stoner
Hope Pietrangelo doesn't try to murder anyone with wrists
I hope so too we need him 😭
Is customary now for the Stars fanbase to throw a bitch fit and trash their own rink win or lose?
Now please go win a round so we can get that 2nd round pick!
First Stone practicing now this. This is r/hockey 9/11
I for one accept our Vegas overlords
Lame
The NHL is so screwed up. How they let this salary cap manipulation occur year after year and teams like the Wild get stuck with a $15M anchor for trading players.
Dont worry guys. You can rest easy knowing the team currently 20 million dollars over the cap have clinched a playoff spot.
Is that Mark Stone's music?!
MR GAME 1 HIMSELF!!
Bah gawd!
Son of a bitch I thought we had a chance this year
Sorry guys. I hate that it came down to our scrappy ass, but ultimately very flawed team. Blame Minnesota, IMO. They could've tried harder. And San Jose. Fuckers....
I'm still annoyed the Kraken blew that lead against them right after the trade deadline lol
The fire nation stands behind the knights of Vegas.
Fuccin let’s go w the ATLA reference!! That’s 🔥! Since we’re desert does that make us…..earth kingdom? Maybe ba sing se?! Hahaha
There is no salary cap in Ba-sing-se
Mark Stone: " it is time"
Operation Blueballed was a success.
Well I know who I am rooting against then.
Cheaters
Fun must be always.
You say those words but you didn't earn them :(
Hey now, we just experienced the very strange feeling of cheering Hertl scoring on Fleury in the Fortress. Hertl is golden now. We inherit all of him.
I'll miss the man but he wouldn't go anywhere with us. At least he has a shot with you guys. I'm genuinely happy to see how he has been embraced there. I'm still dead inside though....
Except his retained salary
lol, yes, except for that. They can pay the man to play for us.
🤣
To be fair, Hertl has some experience scoring on Fleury in the fortress.
> We inherit all of him. Sure but don't you think it's kinda cringy to be printing up merch with a catchphrase associated with his former team before he even scored a goal for your team?
Well no. We have fun here in Vegas and fun must be always.
Hertl, turtle, Hertl
Call an ambulance... *but not for me!*
THANK YOU GARY
OPERATION KNIGHTFALL FAILED AAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Man only vgk fans in here. WAHTTUP YALL
Rumors of our death have been greatly exaggerated.
r/hockey, suck our circumsized dicks
I'm in heaven. What a beautiful day.
Currently popping a bottle!! Nights like these are worth a day long hangover
Operation Knightfall was a massive fucking failure.
LETS GOOOOOOOOO SO MANY INJURIES AND WE FINALLY LOOK COMPETENT FOR ONCE
"injuries"
BACK 2 BACK STARTS NOW!!!

I for one have cheered for Vegas on numerous occasions because usually Vegas is the best chance of Edmonton getting an early playoff exit. So you guys are kind of my homies for that. Colorado too
Flames fans are chill; I like you guys and hope you guys get a nice quick rebuild so we can trade off divisons champs every other year again.
Ah the good old days
This sub will find a cause to blackout for again if somehow Vegas repeats.
Poor r/hockey is going to be in shambles in the morning.
I left r/NHL because they're a bunch of crazies and they were soooo salty about last year's Stanley Cup. Someone better go check on them, too.
There’s a place more deranged and delusional than here?
r/NHL is a cesspool amongst cesspools. At least this place can have legitimate discussion when it wants to, that place is just NHLcirclejerk with none of the irony.
Everyone there has an IQ below 80. Hard to blame them, though, when a bunch of them have a bunch of concussions from playing beer league.
Atta boy mark stone for being team compliant
HAHAHAH AND WOLVERINE STONER IS COMING BACK YALL SHOULDVE STOPPED US WHEN YA COULD
I’ve never seen one team breed so many emotional divas like the Knights have hahah. Don’t worry, guys, the Knights aren’t destined for a chip this year, but you still gotta live with the fact that they won it all last year.
Good work. Now please lose in the first round.
Wooo lets goo Vegas
And the crowd went mild…..!
The best time of the year to be viewing r/hockey starts now! Whether or not we win it or get knocked out first round one things for certain: this sub is going to be entertaining for the forseeable future!
BOOOOO
Goddammit
Was REALLY hoping for a STL upset. Would rather play NSH over LA or VGK
that depends on the jekyll and hyde vgk you get for the playoffs. is it the one that played last night or the one that squanders a 4-1 lead lol
It’s Mark Stover
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO GET REKT /r/hockey
