After 56 years without a Stanley Cup, fans of the Vancouver Canucks have had plenty of time to come up with explanations for why things always seem to go wrong. In this episode, I chat with NHL content creator Big Head Hockey and put some of the biggest Canucks fan conspiracies to the test. We talk about Elias Pettersson, Vancouver’s brutal draft lottery history, Gary Bettman and the Canadian Stanley Cup drought, the 2011 Final against Boston, and whether the Canucks might actually be cursed.
