They need more top 6 players - period. They need more players who can score clutch goals (all due respect to Mony & Johnny). You do that by the draft. The cost of trading for this type of player is too much. Unfortunately, they are caught in the cycle of not being good enough to complete for a cup and not being bad enough to get a first overall draft pick. At the very least, they need more high end draft picks - I don't see how that happens. Maybe someone will give them a high draft pick for one of D men, but it's not going to be a team that is at the bottom of the standings.
