We won’t win 3 in a row all year…. Will we ?


I wonder what the record is for winning 2 in a row, without ever winning a third? Very niche record, but someone must know.


2016-17 Avs never won 3 in a row all season. I'm sure there are others. Expansion year Caps are probably another one given they only won 8 games all year


Yes - but Caps never had a shot at 3 in a row (best they managed was to string together a win and a tie at one point and even that they only managed once). Avs in 2016-17 only had four times where they paired wins. We've failed 9 times to win the third game. So is that a record? It has to be close.

EDIT: I tried ChatGPT and it couldn't figure this out, suggesting it needs a specific stat query on NHL data to solve for it. That's more work than I'm willing to do today!
