My thought, the draft philosophy must be IQ, skill, and body size. Must draft most smart skilled player at your turn.
Then player development is next step. Develop your player whatever the player could be at his best.
Third one should be player management. Value own prospect and value their role to the team. If you have extra player or two trade them for the player you need.
The main problem of this team management they doesn't have good pro scouts who can find useful prospects in other teams prospect pool.
We can have many small prospects that can play same positions and good enough to play NHL. But we should be able to trade some of them for other players that the team need.
