from Peter J. Schwartz of Forbes,
The San Jose Sharks have yet to hoist the Stanley Cup, but when it comes to building teams that deliver bang for the buck, they’re the closest thing the National Hockey League has to a dynasty.
By the metric of player costs to wins, in the four seasons since the NHL introduced a salary cap, the Sharks are the only team to finish each season in the top eight among the league’s 30 teams. The Sharks rank third overall in the salary cap era, behind Detroit and Pittsburgh (the last two Stanley Cup winners top our list because playoff success counts more in our scoring than regular season victories).
continue and all kinds of lists, charts, etc….
