There has to be some middle ground between the expansion teams of the 90's / early 00's and this 109 point juggernaut that is half way to winning a Stanley Cup in year 1.
I don't want a bottom feeder filled with AHL scrubs in the NHL. It's a bad look on any league and nothing wrong with what the NHL did IMO. Nobody was complaining about the draft last summer and it's only because some of these players blew up that people are complaining. Leave a lot of these guys on their previous teams and half of them are probably still buried and nobody is talking about them today.
