Columbus is the farthest South team after us

 

[Porter Stoutheart]

So it's our turn next, yay.

 

[Gnashville]

Better days are ahead for Columbus I hope. At least they aren’t drafting mid range every year

"Hope"? What's that? Is that like one of those words y'all use down South that I've just not heard before?

Yet…

As long as our expansion brethren don't beat us to it.

I can at least partially agree.
Heck, I can even live with Preds ahead of Jackets so long as the next one comes up here.

Atlanta with two NHL attempts and no Cups.

Nice try referring to Nashville as "Sunbelt" ...

 

[LCPreds]

Maybe we’ll have one by the 50th anniversary.

 

[Armourboy]

I can honestly say I could care less.

 

[Kat Predator]

Well, Arizona is on (permanent?) hiatus, so we have a better chance than they do.

PS: San Jose is farther south than Columbus.

 

[Predsanddead24]

Yeah but the Sun Belt is just a G5. How many SEC Championships do they have?

Pretty disrespectful of the Coyotes to leave the sunbelt just to make the Preds the last team here without a Cup.

Atlanta too.

 

[LCPreds]

It’s ok. We still have plenty of 6-8 seed hockey in our future. We’re definitely the best at making the playoffs.

A chip and a chair.

Florida took 30 years, though. We've only been in the league 25. I'd like to get in the win column, too, but we aren't horrible because we haven't. Mediocre and sub-par maybe, but not horrible.

 

[herzausstein]

10 seasons after back to back bottom of the NHL finishes Florida Panthers have risen from the ashes.

 

[LCPreds]

I do wonder how the future might have played out differently for both franchises had the 2013 draft gone as predicted.

 

[Porter Stoutheart]

If I'm lucky, I may only have 20 years left for the Preds to win it. I don't have time for tanking! At some point, I'm gonna be like, hey, package up the next 10 1st round picks for Shea Weber Jr.

You might be correct geographicly, but Columbus is definitely not in the South.
