2011 still hurts

da sens man no cup?

What feels worse, to be a perennial choker like the Shorks or Craps or Snes, or be a literally who like the Yotes or Jackest?

Starting the offseason off right with a fresh new meme

It's been 8 LONG years.

Choking. Irrelevant teams at least get to play spoiler and meme sometimes.

Fuck off retard

Nobody cares about hockey, look at all the football threads ya cunt, join the rest of the world and maybe we wouldnt be so shit at international events

Irrelevant tames can meme it up atleast. Better than a choker.

Being a Buffalo fan in the 90s must have stung.

>tfw snes fan in the 2000's

4 fucking times to the Leafs
Would have won in 2005 if not for lockout
Would have won in 2006 if not for Hasek going to the Olympics
Ran into Ducks buzzsaw in 2007

Who's the most likely next candidate?

Cam they do it?

>blues
>sabres

Probably the Blues. Coach has already said it'll be his last season. If that doesn't motivate them to dig deep and finally win one, nothing ever will.

They are losing Backes though and possibly Shatttenkirk

>would have won in 2003 if Redden and Lalime didn't fuck up in the last 3 minutes of game 7

No. Leafs is the answer.

Yeah, but almost everyone is losing someone.
Even without them, they're more talented than any of them save maybe the Sharks, who are getting pretty old, and the Caps, who are the chokest of the choke.

Brouwer is FA too.

The Next Season

Go Canucks


Canucks Win The Cup :D

Don't forget Rachunek and Havlat being a lazy fuck

San jose (California) and Columbus (Ohio)


only Win trophies in the MLS (Major League Soccer)


(Crew And Earthquakes)

lol no, they lucked hard through every possible round this year with Elliot playing completely out of his pay grade and clutch performances from guys that don't normally do shit like Stastny.

Kings, Hawks, Stars, even Shorks will be better than last year and none of them are losing a crucial player. Blues might lose as many as 3.

Right, but none of those teams are on this list.
This list? It's full of shitty teams.

Kings hawks stars all won cups

They're not allowed here

We're talking about which of the now cupless teams will be the next one to win a cup.

Blues probably have a one year window at this point

...

my money is on Nashville or Florida to go full meme

I can't speak for the other side, but being a round 1 stepping stone to the SCF isn't fun.

>it's been 10 years since the Hurricanes won their Cup.

Damn.

Get out of this thread now

but flipping over all those cars must have felt good

>Jagr starts his career with a Cup
>Jagr ends his career with a Cup

I wonder what the record is for most years between Stanley Cup titles?

Neither

Preds are perennial overachievers though. No one's ever seriously expected you to compete for a Cup.

You'll always have the 80s

>tfw Cup

Even the Hurricanes have a cup.


The Hurricanes.

Rachunek is gonna bring Friesen's soul to hell

REEEEEEEEEEEEE get out

>born august 1990

t-thanks

> Choking or irrelevance

As a Sharks fan, definitely choking. Say what you want about the Yotes, Oilels, or CBJ, but at least they can be memes that rain on others' parades and their fanbases must be tight-knit communities completely free of bandwagoners. Life as a SJ/Washington/STL fan is just plain suffering.

>born in a cup year

No complaining

>no mention of Ottawa who were the OG chokers and now stuck in mediocre hell

t-thanks

What are you trying to insinuate?

>No one's ever seriously expected you to compete for a Cup.
That's not a good thing.

How do you fix this shit?

As far as being Cupless goes, it's probably the best case scenario.
Your team is good enough that there's actually a point to watching them, but bad enough that when they lose, you can't be too disappointed.

You move it to Quebec

> Has 3 Cups

GTFO THIS THREAD REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

would be cool if they acquired Andrew Shaw from Chicago this year to go with Saad.

Do we have a chance now that we have a legit coach bros?

That we are better then all those teams.

The Oilers have won 36% of their games since I became old enough to drink.

>Boudreau
>legit

It's like said, neither is fun. The situation is better than Columbus, but 0 div - 0 conf and 0 cups makes tripping at the finish line more appealing.

Another chinkout is more likely to happen.

Ya he doesn't have any cups, but a 409-192 record as a coach is still pretty legit

The degree to which Boudreau chokes in the playoffs simply baffles me.
You can't tell me that any one coach is such a huge factor on his team that they choke every single time. He's just a dude in a suit on the bench.
And yet Bruce Boudreau exists.

I will never forget this moment.

That was Phillips fault tho

Boudreau lacks leadership. He's good at the nuts and bolts part of the coaching but he will never inspire a team. That might sound like bullshit but a team that believes it is going to lose will lose while a team that believes it is going to win could win or it could lose. Boudreau's only hope is a 2012 >kongs style run where they go up 3-0 each series.

>Alfie's shorthanded goal will forever be forgotten

feels bad man

>phillips has more games player with the snes than alfie

feels infuriating man

Okay? Lots of coaches lack leadership. Make the playoffs enough times in a row and even a blind coach can stumble into a conference final. And we know his teams are good, he wins the President's Trophy every god damn year.

But every fucking time. It's astounding. It's like he's doing it intentionally and wagering money against his own team.

>you now remember how real of a nigga Alfie is

Yes, being a Canucks fan is true suffering

>never win
>if the team gets even slightly good, get accused of being a bandwagoner

Thug life
Hall of Fame bound
Real niggas don't die except when Mark Bell is being a faggot

How the fuck have the senators never won a cup.

Biggest wtf on this.

see
And the team went full jew after that

>mfw that Alfredsson, Havlat, Hossa, Fisher, Redden, Schaefer, Spezza, Chara, Volchenkov, and a mid-tier goalie in Lalime

It's stilll surprising, a decade later, that they weren't able to just roll through teams

>finally fix the goalie problem and get hasek
>lockout steals a year
>hasek easily vezina favorite going into olympic break
>ruins groin
>emery saves 1 shot out of 4 in 3 overtime playoff games

terrible luck

>tfw hurricanes

smug.jpg

>le ray emery meme

Fuck, I had forgotten he existed
Good times

I might as well be here.

We haven't won a cup since there were 6 teams and when draft rules were fucked such that incoming players had to give preference to their local team.

>0 "real" cups

I don't even think the Leafs have seriously challenged for one in my lifetime.
The Yankees, the Lakers, the Steelers and Cowboys, those guys are rolling in titles.
How on Earth is the most popular team in the NHL so bad for so long?

Same here pham. Take a smuk_canes

>St Louis Blues
They could've at least made this series exciting, but fucking no they go soft against the softest team they faced in the playoffs.

FUCK
THIS
TEAM

>senators
>no cups


en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Stanley_Cup_champions#NHL_champions_.28since_1927.29

their series against chicago was better than the finals

this. hawks elimination day was the best day of the playoffs

I think the Blues thought so too, that was part of the problem.

>bad for so long?

Literal jew owners

They know people will root for the Leafs even if they lose, so they don't bother putting together a winning team.

No don't even mention them

It's a fucking joke that the team has those banners hanging in the rafters

no it wasn't
game 6 islanders / panthers was the best day of the tournament
the ending was hilarious

They really were a team that let their foot off the gas.

They let their first two series go to seven and waited to win, and by the time they thought the shorks were a joke it was over.

I'm still mad.

t blues fan

A literal teacher's union were the owners for quite a long period of time

>tannenbaum
>teachers union

pick one

cowboys would have won those back to back titles regardless of the owner
and they've been really bad since then

The first easily

Why did they have to do this? the pouncing panther logo was great

kek did you see their new sweaters

what a meme

Looks like one of the generic Create-A-Team logos from some video game

Oh right forgot they got rid of one of the best logos for that thing

Want me to fix the picture?

>kittens

Hey being around since 2000 is better than being around since 1970
The jackets will win one with their young talent

>jackets
>literal who
Hahahaha I'm pretty sure the jackets and the yotes have the best young talent in hockey
Considering the jackets farm team just BTFO of Hershey
It's about to be a dynasty mate

>moving the jackets after 15 years
KEK
We aren't Atlanta we have an actual fanbase

Or get an old hossa for minimal money
Might as well

I like to believe too

when are you guys moving to Hamilton Ontario?
