It isn't like that now, because it has been proven that a team with high end speed can win games differently. It is very difficult to play against these super fast teams, there is always a few guys all over the puck. The fastest player in the game that can't score is still a problem for the other team, and don't cost as much as the offensive players.
Somewhere Rico Fata is wishing he was born 15-20 years later.
