And yes, the gap is that large. 28 straight losses in a visitors rink kinda confirms it. A good team gets this monkey off their back years ago.

It's not a curse but it's not about being an "inferior team" because for some of those years, they weren't. 28 losses in a row in one building is mind boggling. Hell even if it was about being an inferior team a putrid team would win 2-3 of those on pure luck alone.
I don't know what it is, but chalking it up to being a crappier team makes as much sense as there being a curse. Too many games over too many years with too many different players and coaches to chalk it up to that.
