Gretzky brings a cup to LA.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

I just realized I didn't turn the draft option on for the Lindros sim, so Im gonna have to scrap it and restart it.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

Fixed it here goes. Rangers in trouble. Nords up top.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

Better quality.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

Season is over. Quebec up top Rangers miss playoffs. Look like idiots for bringing in Lindros curse lives at 53 years.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

Pens win 3 in a row.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

93-94 and things are faring better.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

The cure increases to 55 years, as the Pens win their 4th straight Stanley Cup.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

1994 playoff results

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

1995 shortened season up until the deadline. Rangers looking like morons for making this deal.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

1995 season over. Rangers out. Lindros is a ghost. Pittsburgh has a real chance to win 5 in a row.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

Stats

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

For the first time since 1960 we have a quint-peat. Pittsburgh wins 5 cups in a row.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

Halfway through 95-96 and the Rangers finally look to be a top team. Could the curse end a 56 years. However Pittsburgh seems possessed by the prospect of winning 6 cups in a row.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

1995-96 is over. The Rangers are a top team, but Pittsburgh is tops again.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

The ultimate insult occurs as the New Jersey Devils win the Stanley Cup in 96. Pittsburgh's streak is snapped as a team other than them finally wins a cup in the 90s.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

Halfway through 96-97. Colorado leading the way.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

96-97 final standings, Colorado reaping the benefits of the trade.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

The Avs win the cup. Just like real life they benefit from the trade.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

Midway through 97-98. I'm happy Neil Smith didn't do this trade in real life.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

97-98 is over. Usual suspects dominating NYR curse is now at 58 years.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

Pittsburgh wins the 98 Stanley Cup. Cementing their status as team of the decade. 6 cups in 8 years wow. They've surpassed the Oilers and Isles as the best modern day dynasty.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

Midway through 98-99.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

And the NY Rangers are able to get out of 1 of the worst trades in history. Eric Lindros is shipped to his hometown Leafs on February 22.

 

[CharlestownChiefsESC]

98-99 season is over.
