With 4 straight Stanley Cups the Colorado Avalanche have definitely earned a spot in the discussion about the best dynasty's in this sim.
The Detroit Red Wings of 1997-2000 also won 4 straight Cups. Prior to that you have to go back to the 1954-55 to 1957-58 Montreal Canadiens to find a team that won 4 in a row. That Habs team actually won 6 in a period of 7 years with the only blemish being a finals loss to Detroit in 1959.
The record though is the 8 straight the Toronto Maple Leafs won to start the sim from 1931-32 thru 1938-39.
Picking the best team I still might lean to the Stan Mikita, Bobby Hull, Phil Esposito led Chicago Black Hawks of the 1960s, who made 9 straight finals appearances and won 5 Cups.
The final team I believe worthy of inclusion is the 1974-78 New York Rangers, who made the finals 5 straight years and won 4 Cups.
When time permits I will take a closer look at each of these teams.
