To be fair, pasta might not have developed into the winger he is now on the Canucks. Not a purposeful shot at them, but players develop differently in different situations.
Imagine what horvat could learn training, practicing, playing with bergeron day in and day out.

The worst part about that call is they were on the NE 1, and out of 24 rushes total, lynch only had TWO runs of 0 gain, one of which was the 2nd rush in the opening drive (never lost yardage). He gained at least 1 yard on 92% of his attempts to that point.

As far as it happening in Boston it's mostly luck. Imagine where the Pats would be if the browns never moved and Bill stayed in CLE or even NY. But a true core of great players can really stabilize a team for a long time.
Bergeron, krejci, Chara and rask were all on the bruins as far back as '07, with marchand drafted in '09, and pastrnak in '14 (this is his 9th bruins season!). They've had serious stability from their top 5-6 players for the past 15 years.
