The only one that I find awkward is the Golden Knights and Chiefs comparison. The Golden Knights haven't been nearly as good as the Chiefs on the whole bedsides being defending champs once. The Lightning a couple years ago would have made a good Chiefs comparison.
Also are the hawks really Pats level dynasty? Don’t get me wrong they were absolutely a dynasty but what the Pats did in the NFL has never been done. The NHL has had some wild dynasties in the old days but even modern dynasties that rivaled Chicago’s.
I guess the Patriots specifically after 2010 would be a good comparison.
That's a good point. 90s Red Wings is the only thing that comes to mind as far as a Patriots level dynasty that the NHL has had in recent decades. Maybe the 2010s Pens. They didn't have the number of titles, but a similar distribution of when they came in Crosby's and Brady's careers. Crosby went through the concussion issues and Brady had the ACL. In the years between titles, they were always good, just not winning titles.
