Also, I don't think you need a generational talent to win in this league. I think depth reigns above all - we know this group is capable and if they aren't capable yet, they could become capable. Depth will always be important, so keep drafting smart and making the right moves.
I don't think anyone could argue that depth is key - but in today's NHL it's really tough to maintain and replenish that depth. If you have a generational player, it seems like it's easier to refresh like Pittsburgh has done.
