I don't know about that. If we ended up with three 2nd liners/2nd pairing d-men vs one franchise player I'd take the franchise player every time.
Seems like most Stanley Cup contenders have a few great players. I don't see us building a cup contender with merely good players. I understand people think we need depth but I'd argue we need quality and top end players more than depth. Depth players can be traded for and signed. Franchise players can often ONLY be acquired through the draft.
If we can get a franchise player this year you do it.
Sucks we were 1-2 wins away from having our choice of one.
