Most, I believe, are doing the latter. I don't agree with the other way of thinking.
I do a bit of both but mostly by ceiling. Sure, Say Klimchuk (who I love) makes the team out of camp, he likely tops out as a third liner. Making the team right away doesn't make him a better prospect than say Valimaki who is likely a top 4 D.

But I feel everyone gets to apply their own thinking to this, there's no right or wrong way to do it
