The defending champs are now just last year's champs.
Defeated 2-1 by the Dallas Stars in Game 7 of their first-round series Sunday, the Vegas Golden Knights' hopes of back-to-back Stanley Cup wins came to an end.
Vegas, which faced plenty of criticism from hockey fans for its use of long-term injured reserve, did not receive much sympathy on social media following the loss.
The rejoicing of fans from other teams even reached the point that the word 'Cheaters' and phrase 'Bye Bye' started to trend on X (formerly known as Twitter).
And to think, this team attracted all this reaction despite joining the league just seven years ago.
Here is a glimpse at some of the response to the Stanley Cup finding a new home.
