Thanks for watching, Twisters! I love producing videos covering historical topics, but in order to keep dedicating myself to this full-time, I need help.

[@joshhale9355]

Personally I don’t consider someone who has never won as a drought. It shouldn’t be a “drought” if it’s never rained there.

[@nathancjarrett]

The last time the Leafs won a cup they were the best of only 6 NHL teams in the league.

Always fun to revisit the 2011 finals, where we got embarrassed on home ice

[@TheBeggies95]

Don’t worry, the Bruins should not have been there. They did an intentional dirty hit to Pacioretty leaving him out for the season. Habs - Bruins serie got to game 7 and the Habs “lost” by one point. Pacioretty was the best scorer for Montreal

Those old Star jerseys were some of the best. Lot of franchises have changed to bland jerseys.

I love the Victory Green, but yeah that design from the 90s is iconic.

[@Rockhound6165]

As a Flyers fan I remember those Cups fondly. Missed out on the Hat Trick in '76 then the heartbreak of 1980 especially game 2 when the Islanders scored 2 disputed goals. '85 looked promising and even won game 1 of the finals but ended up getting steamrolled. '87 was simply heartbreaking. Falling behind 3-1, an Edmonton newspaper printed a parade route ahead of game 5 and the Flyers won game 6 then trailing game 6 in the 3rd period the Flyers scored 2 goals a minute and a half apart to win the game forcing a game 7 which they lost 3-1. 1997 was a kick in the balls. The Flyers steamrolled into the finals winning all 3 conference series in 5 games only to lay down in the finals. It was such a bad performance that their coach ended up getting fired. 2010, barely made the playoffs, pulled a miracle in the 2nd round(in fact the Eastern Conference finals featured the 7th and 8th seeded teams) and gave Chicago a hell of a series before losing. Haven't been close since. In fact, since 2010 the Flyers have only made the playoffs 6 times. Fun Fact: The Flyers have been able to produce the playoff MVP twice even though they lost in the finals. 1976-Reggie Leach and 1987-Ron Hextall.

[@mosinc7388]

When your cup drought is longer than never.

[@MisterVercetti]

Fun fact: the Blue Jackets are the only currently existing team to have never made it to a conference final with the sole exception of the Seattle Kraken, who have the excuse of being literally three years old (and who also won their first playoff series far more quickly than the Jackets did: 2 years in comparison to the CBJ’s whopping _19)._

Oilers fan here.... 34 years. OUCH!!!!!!!!

[@Sophie-28Storms_U13A]

As a leafs fan, I get it

[@brettpatterson404]

There’s 32 teams you are only excepted to win once every 32 years now so 34 years is not that bad. Plus the Oilers I would say were only Contenders for maybe 5 years in those 34.

[@TwistedWristerHockey]

The West looks pretty open this year, so there's a chance to get back to the final. They could probably benefit from the '06 alumni hyping them up in the dressing room!

[@michaelleroy9281]

It's unlikely they're going to have another Gretzky although he wasn't with the team in 1990

[@TheronAnderson-hy3lp]

Yeah I’m a oilers fan from Alaska. Geographically the closest team to where I grew up. The oiler dynasty of the 80’s was the first nhl games I ever watched on TV. Been a fan ever since.

If Bernie wasn’t injured in 76 it would have been a 3 peat for Philly.

[@kel9855]

You didn't mention the root cause of the drought for three franchises - the Canadiens curse. For the last three teams that beat the Canadiens in the Final, that's when their drought began. The Maple Leafs - last won the Cup in 1967, when they beat the Canadiens. The Flames - last won the Cup in 1989, when they beat the Canadiens. The Lightning - last won the Cup in 2021, when they beat the Canadiens.

[@chadh8132]

4 cups by the Rags in damn near 100 years is embarrassing lol. Especially considering half that time was with 6 teams or so

[@Heytherebuds]

Canucks or Jets for the west Carolina or Toronto for east Yes I'm know that 3 Canadian teams but those are my predictions.

[@nathancjarrett]

I like Vancouver or Winnipeg out of the West too. I'm a Stars fan, but if I had to put money on it I'd go with Winnipeg. I think they have better goaltending than us.

[@TwistedWristerHockey]

I haven't made official predictions, but I have a feeling Canadian teams will do more damage than previous years. I especially like your west pick 👍

[@Heytherebuds]

@@TwistedWristerHockey thanks. I know the East is a little shaky with my choices, but it's so unpredictable. A lot of people say rangers others say Boston, but I just think the youth and the talent that Carolina and Toronto have could surprise a lot. Carolina allow the least amount of goals I think in the Eastern conference while scoring a good amount themselves. But playoff hockey is different. We'll see

[@stephintheatre6335]

Be nice if the Winnipeg Jets win there first Stanley Cup this year .

[@geoffstonehouse5829]

The Canucks weren't just embarrassed in game 7, they were embarrassed even worse for the 3 games in Boston, they didn't even show up for those games.
