Man, how time flies. The Vegas Golden Knights are now entering their sixth season in the NHL, with training camp starting up next week and rookie camp now underway.

It may be easy for Golden Knights and Seattle Kraken fans to remember each and every season of their favorite team’s history. But as time goes on, things will only get harder with historical memorization.

So I’ve come up with a key on how to remember each and every Golden Knights season thus far. And I even have my predictions for this upcoming season. You know how every episode of Friends is titled “The one where….?” Well, here is my summary of the Golden Knight’s history using that naming method.

This was just a random idea that I had, and I hope it makes you go “ohhh yeahhhh” at least once.

2017-18- Year One

  • The one where they had to resort to a fifth-string goalie
  • The one with David Perron, James Neal, and other misfits
  • The one where they went to the Stanley Cup Finals

2018-2019- Year Two

  • The one with the Cody Eakin penalty
  • The one where they traded for Mark Stone
  • x

2019-20- Year Three

  • The one shortened due to COVID
  • The one where they fired Gerard Gallant
  • The one where Nate Schmidt got suspended for PEDs

2020-21- Year Four

  • The one in the COVID ‘West Division’
  • The one with the red reverse retros
  • The one where Marc-Andre Fleury won the Vezina, and got stabbed

2021-22- Year Five

  • The one where they missed the playoffs
  • The one where they traded for Jack Eichel
  • The one with the Evgenii Dadonov trade void

2022-23- Year Six Predictions

  • The one with the other reverse retros
  • The one where Robin Lehner missed the season
  • The one with Phil Kessel
