Here is a video I came across that I thought was interesting:
http://www.tsn.ca/video/button-s-formula-for-success-1.212300
Button suggests his basics for a building of a solid NHL team (similar to Pierre McGuire's system) (Another fun exercise)
His system
3 Defencemen (top 3)
2 Centers (1,2 or 2,2 or 1,3 type) (1=star, 2= 2nd liner; 3=3rd liner)
1 Goalie (Decent starter at least)
2 Forwards (impactful) (Can also be centers)
1 Defencemen (4 or 5th guy)
How would Detroit fit into this system. I wont suggest my model until I hear some responses
McGuire had a 7 player system:
Pierre Mcguire has something he calls the 7-player profile, and every cup champ in the last 18 years has had at least 5 or 6 of the components. With most contenders having those elements during their window.
2 legitimate top 6 centers preferably not undersized.
1 offensive defenseman
1 shutdown defenseman
1 shut down forward
1 power forward
1 legitimate no 1 goalie
