Cup Curse?

[la_samtyr]

For my hockey sibs:

The Curse of Detroit is a more recent Stanley Cup related curse, penned by Hockey Night in Canada host Ron MacLean. In every NHL season since the Detroit Red Wings won the 2002 Stanley Cup championship, each team that has defeated Detroit in the playoffs has gone on to the Stanley Cup Finals, and on each occasion, has lost to the Eastern Conference team in seven games. In the 2003 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Anaheim Mighty Ducks won the Western Conference Quarterfinals series against Detroit 4-0 and eventually ended up in the Stanley Cup Finals, losing the series to the New Jersey Devils 4-3. In the 2004 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Calgary Flames won the Western Conference Semifinals series against Detroit 4-2 and eventually ended up in the Stanley Cup Finals, losing the series to the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-3. Following the 2004-05 NHL lockout, in the 2006 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Edmonton Oilers won the Western Conference Quarterfinals series against Detroit 4-2 and eventually ended up in the Stanley Cup Finals, losing the series to the Carolina Hurricanes 4-3. Currently in the 2006-07 NHL season, Detroit is in first place in the Western Conference and is likely to qualify for the 2007 Stanley Cup Playoffs, with the possibility of the curse continuing this season.

EDIT: Game 6 is in the books. The question remains: Is this curse still in effect?
