How do the 2007 Anaheim Ducks stack up to the best teams in recent history?
With the inductions of Nicklas Lidstrom and Sergei Federov into the Hockey Hall of Fame on Monday, the hockey world spent a great deal of time talking about that 2002 Red Wings team and its place in history. When Pavel Datsyuk gains entry into the Hall of Fame, he will be the tenth player from that roster to have done so.
This got me thinking about where the 2007 Ducks team fits into these kind of discussions, particularly in comparison with other salary cap era teams.
