D-Money Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Well any GM that knows how to build a hockey team knows that depth players are probably just as important, if not more, than star players. So no I don't agree. And no, good 2nd-4th liners are not easily replaced, that's another fallacy. These are the guys that come up big when the stars are getting shut down. They are the guys that win cups. By signing Letang to the contract Pittsburgh did, or the one that Boston is gonna do with Rask, they become farther away from being contenders because they won't have quality depth. They should have parted with Rask while they could IMO, and focused on keeping the depth of the team together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
