Since 1993, Canadian teams have not been able to win the Stanley Cup. The last success belonged to the 'Montreal Canadiens', who then defeated the 'Los Angeles Kings' (4-1). After that, eight times Canadian teams reached the finals but were unable to win the main tournament of the NHL season.
At the end of this year, 'Florida' became the champion for the second year in a row, defeating 'Edmonton' in the finals. Last season, they also snatched victory from the 'Oilers', taking the Stanley Cup.
In January 2026, the French Hockey Federation announced participation in the Olympic Games as a replacement for Russia, which was excluded from the competition by the IIHF in Italy. Vyacheslav Fetisov reacted to this news with overwhelming words, expressing doubt about Russia's influence on world hockey.
For the last 30 years, NHL Canadian teams have been under the spell of the Stanley Cup, unable to win the main trophy in hockey. At the same Time, 'Florida' delights its fans with winning their second consecutive victory in this competition. Additionally, France's participation in the Olympic Games was a surprise for many in the hockey world after the scandalous exclusion of Russia.
