Interesting to note the jersey/year, and think how quickly some of those teams turned around because of it (Nords 3 straight = Avalanche domination the next decade, Sens 3 in 4 years = one of the best teams of the next decade, Caps/Pens/Hawks mid-00's, etc etc).
Then look at the last 3 years, and think where the Oilers are still at. Pathetic. If they can't turn themselves into a contender within the next 3-5 years they should just erase that franchise from existence.
