My point is that really only cups matter. If you want to take into account playoff series wins then take into account regular season too.

Sorry, but in stating that only cups really matter, then you are exactly saying that playoff success is not an indicator of franchise success. That is not hyperbole at all; you just said it.
Yes, cup wins matter. But you know you get a cup? You get playoff wins. Yes, you need to win games in the regular season to get to the playoffs, but no team who wins the president's trophy and loses in the first round would consider that a successful season.
And when there are literally two teams out of 31 that have less playoff success, then that would be an unsuccessful franchise.
