The Habs did not take long to fire back.

Good for you! You must be very proud of this incredible preseason accomplishment.— Canadiens Montréal (@CanadiensMTL) September 20, 2017

Vegas was not afraid to reply back as fans can anticipate an intense rivalry between the two teams this season!

We're definitely proud! But not as proud as @CanadiensMTL are of how many championships they won when there were only 6 teams in the league? https://t.co/FaK14I2XLz— Vegas Golden Knights (@GoldenKnights) September 20, 2017
