Disagree, when was the last time any NHL team grabbed a big fish? Parise and Suter??

Big fish are drafted, developed and traded these days and those left on the pile as UFAs are rarely that prized. When Edmonton is grabbing the big 'prize' on D (Sekera), you know that location is not much of an issue.
