With the NHL trying to bring parity to the league with a salary cap and the draft lottery, teams have to draft well.
Most current good teams drafted well, while others haven't been so lucky, so they're forced to find talent via free agency or trades.
The growing sense is that it's a young man's league, as the older players are a ''dying breed''
