They're not the best team ever (the late 70's Canadien still stands tall), but the Red Wings of the past 10 years have been one of the best hockey machines I've ever looked at. They are top-heavy (I mentioned my opinion that Lidstrom was the best defenseman since Bobby Orr, and that Datsyuk is one of the to 5 forwards in the league - and it's not like Hossa or Zetterberg are anything other than superstars), but it doesn't stop there.

Detroit has never won more than 2 cups consecutively.
