He's building to win a cup, which means through the draft so he's snagging picks and young developing players wherever possible.
No one expects Vegas to win a Cup. What Vegas needs to focus on now is establishing and keeping a fanbase. Icing a competitive squad is the way to do that. He'll still be able to collect a handful of first round picks, even after picking the best players exposed.
