4 of the last 7 cup winners were first-timers, including the last two consecutive. Who’s got the best shot at continuing that streak this year?
The 2018 Caps, 2019 Blues, 2023 Knights, and 2024 Panthers all brought home the cup for the very first time in their franchises’ histories. Who could be next?
* **Ottawa Senators** (EWC1): one Finals appearance in 2007, founded 1991
* **Winnipeg Jets** (C1): no Finals appearances, founded 1999, relocated to Winnipeg in 2011
* **Minnesota Wild** (WWC1): no Finals appearances, founded 2000
* **Vancouver Canucks** (1 back of WWC2): three Finals appearances in 1982/1994/2011, founded 1970
In addition to those four, there’s eight playoff or potential-playoff teams nursing Cup droughts of 20 years or more, so we’ve got a good chance for another unique winner.
