Ya, except the example you used is a very poor one. Only Tkachuk ended up being a top tier player at his position. While I liked both Monahan and Bennett, neither were close to being top tier players at their positions. That leaves a top tier undrafted d-man (Giordano), a 4th round top tier LW Gaudreau, and a 6th overall top tier LW\RW Tkachuk. Then you have a great trade, bringing in Hanifin and Lindholm.
