Well, we won't hold you living in TOR/VAN/OTT/WPG against you.
Patrick:
Fun news for me: Sharks beat the Ducks 3-2 last night to reach #1 in the Pacific. Just in case any of you doubters from earlier in the season weren't paying attention. An Anaheim win would've almost surely seen the Ducks clinch the playoffs down the line.

Winnipeg have been a franchise for way less than 40 years, and Ottawa have a Cup within the last 40 years of their operation (non-contiguous, obviously).
Toronto haven't even been in a finals in forever.
Patrick:
And they probably won't get there this year either. Shame about that, I like them, for some reason I can't put my finger on.
Jimor:
One thing about each of the major-league North American sports having 30 franchises apiece is that it means on average there will be 30 years between championships. Just picking names out of a hat, probabilities suggest there will be lots of 50 or 60 year droughts even before considering the relative abilities of management to field quality teams. Factor that in and it doesn't take much to imagine at least a handful of franchises in each sport having streaks to rival the Cubs over time.
