Stanley Cup Droughts
Recently there have been numerous droughts being broken in pro sports:
-Leicester City wins their first EPL title after 132 years
-Cleveland Cavaliers win their first NBA title after 45 years
-Western Bulldogs win their first Aussie Rules title in 62 years
-Cronulla Sharks win their first Aussie NRL title after 50 years.
-Chicago Cubs win their first World Series in 108 years.
-Ireland beats the All Blacks for the first time in 111 years.
This got me wondering, what NHL team will be the next to break their drought and will it happen this season?
There are currently 6 teams with 40+ year droughts:
Toronto and St Louis: 48 seasons
Buffalo and Vancouver: 45 seasons
Washington: 41 seasons
Philly: 40 seasons
My guess: the trend continues in the NHL the season and your 2017 Stanley Cup Champions are the Washington Capitals.
