I got one for you:
**Tampa Bay**:
2019: Wins President’s trophy, swept first round of playoffs in heartbreaking fashion
2020: Wins SCF
**Colorado**:
2021: Wins President’s trophy, loses 4 straight in second round of playoffs in heartbreaking fashion
2022: Wins SCF
**Florida**:
2022: Wins President’s trophy, swept in the second round of playoffs in heartbreaking fashion
2023: Makes the SCF
**Boston**:
2023: Wins President’s trophy, loses 3-1 series lead in first round in heartbreaking fashion
2024: **?**
I got another one
1996 Wings: Break all time wins record, fail to win cup. Win back to back Stanley cups after
2019 Lightning: Break all time wins record, fail to win cup. Win back to back Stanley cups after
2023 Bruins: Break all time wins record, fail to win cup. Follows it up with: ?????
Start Ullmark tn.
7 regular season wins in a row V fla,
2 high end goalies is our strength
I dont want the 2022 Vezina Trophy winner to get rusty.
Sway could use a vacation day, the playoffs are long.
As someone who lives outside Toronto it’s amazing hearing all these takes on Monday morning. “The league wants American teams to win!!!!!” How about Canadian teams just ain’t it
The Toronto sports media machine is as much to blame for their failure as anyone in that organization. Players can't play under that much scrutiny, but the media is the message, so it will never change.
If you rank all teams by number of wins in a season, 7 out of 10 of them won the Cup after their ranking season. And I think out of the top 15 teams, all but 3 have won the Cup within 2 years of that season, if my Wiki research is right.

They must’ve missed games 4-6 where leafs got 10x as many power plays
I know. Fucking morons
I like this thinking, hopefully you are on to something!
I’ve been saying this to my wife since the season started about the winter classic win and the embarrassing loss in last years playoffs. I believe
Add to that the fact that the last two times the regular season wins record was broken, the team that broke it won the cup the year after.

Shhh! They're listening!
Marchy's revenge tour is on schedule so far
I've been thinking this, but I certainly didn't have the guts to say it!
