Interesting analysis in the Athletic about the star power needed to compete for the cup. Based on this analysis Calgary is right up with top teams in terms of star power:
Where they miss is depth:

Hockey is a strong-link game and success is generally driven by a team’s best players, but it’s also a team sport where the best players only play a third of each game. That means that depth is critical to success too as is building a strong core to complement the best players. That’s the difference between a team like Boston, the current Eastern Conference favourite (unless everyone changed their minds again after their loss to Tampa Bay last night), and Calgary, a team that was eliminated weeks ago
