as their combined 1 cup in half a century proves, expensive talent didnt help hem win anything of significance.
meanwhile, markets like East Rutherford, NJ, Denver, Colorado, Raleigh, North Carolina and Tampa, Florida won how many between them in 10 years? Anaheim, Washington, Buffalo, Edmonton, Calgary all more final 4 finishes then teams like BOS, PHI, CHI, NYR, and TOR.
myth buster alert! money was one way to build a competitive team, but clearly not the surest path to the cup.. i dont care what anyone of you armchair economists say, the long term results are overwhelmingly proving my point.
biggest markets in the league have relativly ZERO Championships, never mind buying them all.
