It's been a grim campaign for the NHL's seven Canadian-based clubs. Edmonton, Vancouver, Winnipeg and Calgary occupy the bottom four spots in the Western Conference. Rebuilding Toronto is in the Eastern basement, and Montreal plummeted down the standings after an injury to reigning MVP Carey Price spoiled the Habs' excellent start.
Pretty much the only drama left as these teams slog to the finish line is who will finish dead last in the league and get the best chance of winning the draft lottery for the top overall pick.
The last time the NHL post-season was an all-American-team affair was in 1970. That was the year Boston's Bobby Orr scored his famous overtime winner to finish off St. Louis in the Stanley Cup final.
Since then, Canada has had at least two playoff clubs in all but two years: 2014, when Montreal made it to the Eastern final, and 1973, when the Canadiens won the Cup.
