I think the thing with the scouting staff also goes beyond who was drafted, but who they identified as an NHLer. Part of me thinks this is partly the reason that Tod is still around. At the end of the day, the GM makes the final decision. I think what has changed over the course of the last decade is probably all analytics and systems that the teams build. It is a far cry from the days where Sutter reached for Pelech because he needed a Warner replacement.
