The 1990s were an interesting time for the NHL. The Penguins won Stanley Cups at the start of the decade, Montreal won Canada's last Stanley Cup during that decade, the Rangers and Devils had their moments, and the Red Wings, Stars, and Avalanche were in an arms race as the decade finished as all won Stanley Cups as well.
