I think that in itself is a rather presumptuous conclusion that merely posits that NHL teams will all do their due diligence. Except that we know from history that this is often not the case. I'm not prepared to give Brendan Shanahan or Craig MacTavish and Dallas Eakins so much benefit of doubt, and to merely assume that they know what they are doing.
