Although the cap situation makes things more complicated, you always go with the best player IMO. In every pro sports league, the super elite players tend to win championships. This is true in cap leagues too. There are of course exceptions, but your "generational" players have ways of making those around them better too.
Pittsburgh, Chicago and LA have won 8 recent Stanley Cups.

The amount of "truly elite" talent on those teams when they won indicates that the above post is bang on.
