"...If there’s ever a year to accumulate extra late-round picks, it is this one, on the grounds that if it truly is a shot-in-the-dark draft anyway, the more guesses you get, the greater your odds of actually turning a long shot into a gem."

This might be the year where you adjust your strategy and take more of less.
Instead of pushing for a third as a return, take the fourth and a sixth.
See if you can grab two fifths instead of a fourth.
If you trust your scouts this is the year to take the advise Duhatschek is suggesting and maybe load up on lower lottery balls and see where they go.
Could end up being a franchise defining draft if you target raw skill, speed, and hockey IQ.
