This is a fair concern re #1 centre but Vegas don't have that bonafide guy and will likely win the president's trophy. Carolina drafted their no 1 centre 35th overall and are second in the league. I'm feeling pretty damn good about the young guys we have on roster and in the system and we're going to add another solid piece this draft ~10th overall.
I agree with you; it does happen. Boston with Bergeron and Caps with Backstrom/Kuz too.
I think we CAN be a legit contender without a true 1st overall talent for sure. However either one of Wright/Bedard would have set this club into the next stratosphere in terms of club competition, and we'll be too good by then!
