There are some observors who say "parity" is simply another word for "mediocrity," that a league that denies dynasties also denies greatness.

I'm not in that camp, but that's one view.
Part and parcel of free agency associated with a salary cap. Now, if you had restricted free agency akin to what exists now, along with a hard cap, there's a possibility for dynasties to be created. But I'd much prefer a CBA that sees the possibility of a Calgary/Buffalo final followed by an Edmonton/Pittsburgh final followed by a Minnesota/Atlanta final than see Detroit rattle off four consecutive Stanley Cups.
