Cara Veteran Posted May 14, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 14, 2008 Hmmm...A way to tested my math skills...lol by my horrible math...the habs have a higher %. My math2007 - Year they were formed / number of cups (ex 2007 - 1917 / 24) Habs win it every 3.75 years Leafs every 6.9 years Wings every 8.1 years Noe: My math is bad, I don't use much anymore, so I could be wrong. And I'm not saying who is/isn't hockey town. I was bored. I have already said I want the Red Wings to win. Though had been hoping for a Habs vs Wings cup game... Now the question is can you do that math with the difference between founding dates. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't the Habs celebrating 100 years next season? EDIT: Looked up on Wiki. Habs founded December 4, 1909. 1909-1917 in NHA, won first cup in 1915-1916. NHL from 1917 til now. So 24 cups over 99 years equals a cup every 4.125 years. Also, first cup was awarded in 1893 to The Montreal Hockey Club (commonly called the Montreal Amateur Athletic Association). So I guess Montreal has won more than 24 cups total. They also won 4 cups between 1893 and 1903. Edited May 14, 2008 by SaucE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cara Veteran Posted May 14, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 14, 2008 Aren't the Habs celebrating 100 years next season? Sure are! 1909 - 2009, that should be an amazing celebration! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncc50446 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Cara: THe best I can do is to not count cups won Before the wings were formed, which is two for the Habs, and two for the leafs. New numbers would be Habs = 3.7 leafs = 7.4 Wings = 8.1 Best I can do with my math lol SaucE - 1909 - 1917 they were part of the NHA, then moved to the NHL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I could be around for Calgary's 100th years...Bet it will be one hell of a party in Montreal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrix XII Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Good conversations, but Det and Dallas are playing tonight, it will be a sweep most likely. Dallas was spent after that last series, they had nothing in the tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matrix XII Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 We'll see what happens tomorrow. I don't think Dallas can win at the Joe, especially in the physical state they are in. Several of their skaters (including Morrow) are barely holding together, I'm sure he has multiple injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cara Veteran Posted May 17, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 17, 2008 I'm going to go out on a limb here and call for a 2-1 Detroit Win tonight, I feel the defense will be a lot tighter tonight given the last game and the focus will be more on keeping them off balance rather than a blow out score.

Cara Veteran Posted May 17, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 17, 2008 they are old and their age is finally catching up to them? I'd love to use that as an excuse but they haven't even had to work hard this playoff season so I doubt it. They just look lazy and sloppy out there. Time to pick it up guys and make Dallas see stars already, this is dragging out way to long. :p Four Non Blondes - What's Going On?25 years of my life and still I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination I realized quickly when I knew I should that the world was made up of this brotherhood of man for whatever that means chorus: 'n so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed just to get it all out what's in my head 'n I, I'm feeling a little peculiar 'n so I wake in the morning and I step outside 'n I take a deep breath 'n I get real high 'n I scream from the top of my lungs what's goin' on and I say hey-ey-ey... (jodel-di-dodel...) and I said hey what's going on and I say hey... etc. (uh! uu-uuhu-huhuuuu...) I said hey what's going on and I try, oh my God do I try I try all the time in this institution and I pray, oh my God do I pray I pray ev'ry single day for a revolution (chorus) 25 years of my life and still I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
