Detroit has been doing all those things. But with Datsyuk gone and Zetterberg and Kronwall on their last legs, it isn't enough. They're out of the playoffs, and I doubt they make it back in for years. Hard to see a Stanley Cup contender emerging out of their prospect base today. They're going to get worse before they get better.
