I think skill is the most important.

Acquisition cost of 0 and low cap hit resulted last year with Ortio, Hiller, Ramo. So far this year, it's resulted in the Rittich. Flames could easily get another backup for a very minimal acquisition cost and low cap hit, but then they'd be no further ahead.

Obviously the Acquisition cost and Cap hit still matter, but skill should be paramount.
