The Vegas Golden Knights May Have Just Cursed Themselves
The Vegas Golden Knights broke tradition last night by refusing to touch the Presidents Trophy after their victory.
It has long been believed that touching the trophy brings bad luck in the Stanley Cup Finals. Recent statistics reveal a correlation between teams that declined to touch the trophy and their subsequent success rate. Over the past decade, approximately 85% of teams that avoided touching the Presidents Trophy ultimately ended up losing the finals.
While some may dismiss this as mere superstition, the numbers are hard to ignore. The Golden Knights' decision to forgo touching the trophy might be seen as a strategic move to defy the supposed curse. As they venture into the Stanley Cup Finals, only time will tell if their avoidance of the trophy will prove advantageous.
Fans will be eagerly watching to see if the Golden Knights can buck the trend and capture the ultimate prize.
