Lets also be real too, there is plenty of luck involved...They were trying to get rid of 10M backup Bob, he wasn't even the starter the first of these three playoff years. Ironically if Marchand scores on that breakaway and they are done in 5 vs. Boston who knows.
Suddenly he returns to a top playoff goalie and one of the biggest reasons for their success.

They were run by captain tank (Dale Tallon) who spent half his career in a first row seat for the draft lottery. He's was very good at making teams so bad that they accumulate a plethora of high draft picks in similar fashion to the Oilers decade plus of futility where eventually things will stick.
