Kings, Sharks feud on Twitter after both eliminated by Golden Knights
Who pushed the Vegas Golden Knights harder?
The San Jose Sharks and Los Angeles Kings debated that issue in a Twitter feud just minutes after Vegas punched its ticket to the Western Conference Final on Sunday.
The back-and-fourth tweets began when the Kings reminded the Sharks about a tweet sent during Game 2 of the second-round series, in which San Jose's account mocked Los Angeles' lack of scoring against Vegas in the first round:
TFW you score as many goals in one period as the Kings did in their entire series. pic.twitter.com/oEKkf1tpH0

The Sharks soon fired back, noting they pushed Vegas much further than the Kings did:
Lasted six games in the second round against the team that swept you. https://t.co/qTNMJySsX6

Unfortunately, as the Kings quickly pointed out, that doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things:
Hey @nhl, can we get them a banner for this? 🏆¯\_(ツ)_/¯🏆 https://t.co/cEL4xOqwoY
