I don't think anyone is positing that the Flames are just like VGK, nor that it is a model to follow. The point is that there 8s no one way to win, and every time a different type of team does win, it debunks an old assertion. If the Flames win the Vup this year—which is theoretically possible—they will chip away at false assertions currently held by what teams can or cannot win. This is the same for ANY team that wins the 2024 Stanley Cup.

Vegas had 6 players 30 or older who played regularly on their Stanley Cup team, the other 14 players were in their 20’s
Washington had 4 players 30 or older who played on their Stanley Cup team, the other 16 players were in their 20’s.
Those were the two old teams that were cited as models that you can win with an old team.
