Summary
Ivan Barbashev is on the verge of his third Stanley Cup, with two rings already under his belt — one with the Blues in 2019 and another with Vegas in 2023. Now, back with Vegas in the Finals against the Hurricanes (down 3-2), he’s got a golden chance to etch his name in franchise lore. Leading all playoff players in hits and delivering 14 points this postseason, Barbashev’s physicality and grit are vital as Vegas pushes for another title. Despite going cold in the last three games, his teammates and opponents alike recognize his relentless impact — he’s the complete player Vegas needs to close this series and cement his legacy.
