NHL Teams that have never won a Stanley Cup

11 active NHL franchises have never had a chance to hoist Lord Stanley's Mug yet, can you name all of them?
Teams are sorted firstly by how many appearances they have had in the finals, then alphabetically by city name.
Inactive franchises, whether they won a cup or not, do not count.
One team pays homage to a former Stanley Cup winning team by bearing the same name. Despite this similarity, the current franchise using the name has never won a cup.

The Sabres didn't make the finals in 1980, so their finals count is two.

You're right, they won their conference, but weren't the finalists. I stand corrected and the quiz has been corrected as well.
