Yeah, but Dupont and McKenna are not centers. A legit number one defenceman is a key part of many Championship teams. But when has a team that has an ultra stacked defence and not Star Centers winning anything? Nashville had those couple of years with that stacked D core that made the Cup finals. But ultimately lost out to the team with Letang and a rag tag group lead by Crosby and Malkin down the middle.

You could maybe look at Chicago and think they weren't great down the middle if you think Toews to have been overrated in those days, and that their defence, and Kane were the real drivers.
