Original Six Teams Without a Cup Since 2015
All six of the Original Six have gone cold. Not one has won a Cup since 2015. The league they invented keeps handin' trophies to everybody else.
Straight Playoffs Missed by the Red Wings
The Red Wings missed the playoffs ten straight yeahs. Ten. Hockeytown's down to a fan club and a Zamboni.
Straight Cups Won by Someone Else (2016–2026)
Eleven straight Cups won by somebody else. Pittsburgh, Washington, St. Louis, Tampa, Colorado, Vegas, Florida, Carolina. Look at that list, kid.
Game 7 Losses by the Leafs, an NHL Record
Sixteen Game 7 losses by the Leafs. An NHL record. They hold it the way I hold a grudge.
Regulation Losses by the Habs in 2021–22
Forty-nine regulation losses by the Habs in 2021–22. In more than a century of Canadiens hockey, nobody lost that many.
Regulation Losses by the Blackhawks in 2023–24
Fifty-three regulation losses by Chicago in 2023–24. That's not a season, that's an apology.
Bruins Points in 2022–23, Then Out in Round One
The Bruins had a hundred and thirty-five points in 2022–23, the best regulah season in NHL history. Then they lost in round one. Don't make me say it again.
Combined Years the Six Have Gone Without a Cup
A hundred and sixty-eight combined years without a Cup across the six. That's moah than the Original Six era, the expansion era and my grandmothah's patience combined.
Days Since Any Original Six Team Won a Cup
More than four thousand days since the last Original Six Cup, and the counter's goin' up.
Original Tears
Six teams, six cryin' fan bases, one big puddle on the ice.
