Stanley Cup winners and losers

Speaking of sports most Americans know nothing about, Robby Macdonell visualizes NHL Stanley Cup competitors in his experiment with HTML5. The interactive shows winners and losers since 1927. Teams are shown up top and years are on the bottom. Mouse over stuff, and connecting lines show past appearances if you are looking at a team, or the winner and loser of a year, if you are looking at the bottom.

See Robby’s post for the full skinny on how he did it.

Congratulations to the Chicago Blackhawks in their recent win. You’ve done Obama proud.
