That's what Brian Burke thought when he traded for Kessel. But like the 15-16 Flames, bad goaltending can really hurt your season. Or some other misfortune

I don't think any team believes giving away 4 first round picks for the best player in the world is a recipe for winning a championship. Not in today's NHL.
