Same with starting goalies there might be 30 of them but maybe 15 you would be comfortable with going into the playoffs.

So when you say you want a number 1 center you don't want a top 30 center you want a top 15 center because the rest are just filling space on bad teams.
The Bruins had zero centers in the top 15 last season, nor did they have any in the top 15 the year they won the cup. Were Bergeron and Krejci "just filling space on bad teams"?
