Sports are often a channel for entertainment, but droves of fans are overwhelmed with misery instead.
No matter what sport you follow, there are an abundance of unhappy fans wherever you go. That definitely applies to the NHL, where the Stanley Cup is often toted as the hardest trophy to attain in sports.
Since the turn of the century, 11 different teams have lifted the Stanley Cup in eighteen different seasons. That means fans of 19 other teams (and the Vegas Golden Knights) have cheered for their teams year after year only to watch them fall short of acquiring hockey’s greatest prize.
