Most of them are good, but I've never even heard of the McSorley one. Yes, I remember the incident, but I've never heard anyone extrapolating that into a curse that affects all six Canadian teams.

I had never heard of it either.
But with that, then going back to the famous "It was in" moment that we all love, makes you think

Yeah, and had the Nordiques stayed they wouldn't have won the Cup, because Montreal would have never traded Roy to them.

You never know. That was the only Cup win where Roy was not the playoff MVP. It was Sakic that led the charge.

If the Wings can win the Cup with Osgood and the Canes with Ward. I see no reason that Avs team would've/could've won with Fiset and even Thibault
