With the tanking Buffalo Sabres in town tomorrow night to play Vancouver, TSN 1040 are running an intriguing poll question today.
"
Which team is closer to winning a Stanley Cup?"Results72% - Sabres
28% - Canucks
Both teams entered the league in 1970 and neither team has won a Stanley Cup.
It's true. The Canucks are in purgatory - Sabres have 3 draft picks in next years first round. And so it goes.....

The bad news is they are stuck in an awkward phase of rebuilding-on-the-fly and can’t afford to give up a draft pick, or any prospect who may be worth a damn in two or three years.
