anything in this organization. This is such a rebuild fallacy pet peeve of mine. You don't take our NHL players + prospects and say 2 + 4 = 6 so we're full. That's ridiculous and many fans are doing it for both centers and D-men.
If you think you have a deal for a top 4, young D-man or top 6 center you do it if you feel they can reach their potential. You don't say things like "But where does Zary/Sharongovich or Defense prospect A/B fit if we bring that guy in?" You DO NOT do that when you're in a rebuild.
There's a better than good chance that 80% of the guys you had penciled in as top 6 forwards/defensemen will be fringe/out of the NHL guys in 3-5 years.
