If not for Kadri's efforts to block a trade, they do not get their #2 centre.

If not for Mackinnon being a sub point per game player for the first few years of his career they likely don't get 1.3 point per game Mackinnon at a bargain $6 million AAV

Essentially Sakic us trying to win with Osgoods, and the teams Yzerman built won with Roy.

You sometimes have to play with what you have.

Goalies like Vaski don’t often fall to your team. Once you have them, hang on.

If you have a great team, you can get by with an average goalie. Don’t pay though the nose to obtain a great one.
