Aston Villa are great, and I know they are having a fantastic season. The win over Arsenal was awesome, and I didn't mean to trash Villa at all. It was more trying to draw parallels as to how they are successful and to what teams in the NHL they would be similar to in that regard.
Villa has one of the deepest traditions in the EPL with a rabid fan-base. They usually groom players from within or sign younger/role players for a comparatively smaller fee as opposed to splashing around lots of cash on big name players. Usually this method works for them, but it does result in a particular type of club history that is analogous to other teams in other sports.
