Yes, for most of the Ivy Leaguers you do have to go back a long way for the names. Except for maybe one....and I will give you a hint: think of a coach.

Do AFL championships count?
Do AFL championships count?
Yes, they count as titles.
Except...any of those 4 "league" titles won in NFL/AFL in the 4 years 1966-70. So, before Gunz goes crazy...no the Vikings have NOT won a championship.
So I give you them...one of the 32.
Also, FYI, any ABA or WHA title also counts as a championship. Which means that any team that won a title in those leagues does not count,
-
NFL: Jacksonville, Carolina, Cincinnati, Minnesota, Houston, Atlanta
MLB: Colorado, Tampa Bay, Seattle, Texas, Milwaukee, San Diego
NBA: Indiana, Orlando, Charlotte, Atlanta, LA Clippers, Denver, Utah, Memphis, New Orleans, Sacramento, Minnesota
I know I named 11 NBA teams, but I don't know of any championships from those teams, unless I totally blanked or one of them won an ABA title I'm not aware of.
I'll let someone else attempt the NHL. ?

Indiana Pacers did win ABA titles. Hawks and Kings won titles in the 50s in different cities. (Hawks: St. L. Kings as Royals in Rochester)
I have two not named.

I used to follow the Pittsburgh penguins but don't watch much NHL lately, here goes:
Florida Panthers, Nashville preditiors (Predators..FIFY) Arizona coyotes (were the cheapest professional franchise to buy years ago), Columbus bjs
Highlighted are correct. The Arizona Coyotes franchise is technically formerly the Winnipeg Jets, which franchise did win WHA titles. That was one I had to do some research into, because there is a current Winnipeg Jet franchise...not the same as the old franchise...which you did not name....and which I leave open for determination.
