The Olympic Effect

Canada has sponsored the Olympics only three times in our history.

Every single time....the very next Hockey season....that same hosting city wins the Stanley Cup.

1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal -  that following Hockey season  Montreal Canadiens (the Habs) won the Stanley Cup over Boston.

1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary - The Calgary Flames win against the Habs.

2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver -  well...........Vancouver just needs to win it!!!

Do you see a theme emerging here with the Logos?

Yes, it's that "C".........

Sorry. But that "B" just won't fit in.  My brother-in-law from Boston is not going to be very happy.

BTW:  The USA isn't immune to the Olympic effect either:

Lake Placid Olympics 1980:  New York Islanders win the Stanley Cup that next season.
