Why are five team titles different from a player’s total?
A franchise total includes every championship team in its history. An individual player’s total only includes the winning rosters on which that player participated. Ownership roles are another category. Keeping those distinctions clear avoids the common confusion surrounding Mario Lemieux’s championships as a player and owner.
