if you're serious about winning a cup, I think acquiring a centre of that tier is vital. Being bad in years where the first forward picks are guys like RNH, Hishier, Reinhart, etc is a waste. Being not-bad-enough for the Nathan MacKinnon or Connor McDavid and ending up with Sean Monahan or Dylan Strome is equally a waste.
So I disagree. While there's a minute chace you fluke into a Bergeron or Point, it's not a realistic plan to rebuild.
