For over 46 years and only the second time in history, the NHL’s Stanley
Cup is guaranteed to go to an American team with all seven Canadian
teams eliminated from the Playoffs – and while it is a shame that the
inventors of the Sport are shut out of the winning race, it’s more of a
shame that we never played any spread betting points and made a killing on it ... although as a Yank I’m slightly biased to that order.



With over a week and a half to go from the main season, the last
remaining team with a chance – the Senators – were eliminated as the
Flyers beat the Capitals. While many of Canada’s large fan base are
being reminded that there are several major Canadian players still in
the tournament, ‘including Chicago captain Jonathan Toews, Los Angeles rearguard Drew Doughty and Pittsburgh centre Sidney Crosby,’ there is a sense from many that this does little to console them in the wake of the bigger picture.



However – let’s take a look at who has the most players on their team rosters from Canada:
  • The Panthers – Fielding a whopping 16 Canadian players – however 5 are currently injured
  • The Flyers – With 15 Canadian players on their books, they are a good alternative
  • The Ducks – Another team with 15 on the list, they could carry the flag for the fans
Alternatively fans can just root against the teams that they hate
most and therefore support a ‘Wild card’ pick which would certainly make
the games a little more calm to watch.



So does this look like a one-off or the start of a serious decline for
the Canucks in the NHL? Last year there were 5 teams from Canada that
qualified for the post-season playoffs, and whilst the Chicago Blackhawks were the eventual victors
and the previous years had just one or two Canadian teams, this was
certainly not indicative of the events that have surfaced in this years’
Stanley Cup tournament. That doesn’t mean that we aren’t heading for a
downturn of teams in the Cup, just that we could face this situation
again if the Canadian teams don’t buck up their performances.
