You listed Tampa - 3 top picks in 08/09 lead to - 1 cup, 1 Presidents Trophy, 2 cup final appearances, 2 division championships, 7 playoff appearances, 13 playoff series wins.
St. Louis - the decade you referenced - 3 division championships, 1 cup, 8 playoff appearances, 8 playoff round wins
Washington - 10 division championships, 3 presidents trophies, 1 cup, multiple playoff appearances, 10 playoff round wins
I think we all know the Flames accolades.

The Cup should always be the goal. But yes, I agree with you.
It would be a lot easier to stomach no Cups since 1989 with the track record like those above teams teams.
Sad. And not ironically like how Trump used to say Sad! Just honest to goodness sad.
