The reality is Cinderella teams don't win Cups. They might make noise, but they pretty much never win the whole thing. Once in a while you get good teams who go through bad stretches that make them seem less potent (not unlike like the Pens), but in the end the cream pretty much always rises to the top. The 04 Flames/06 Oilers type teams almost never, if ever, win.
