So get lucky is the plan. Yes you can find stars anywhere in the draft but the probability drops as you go further down. But these teams all have true top players and not just a full lineup of mediocre players.You just have to get lucky. There's no magic formula. Even drafting in the top 10 doesn't guarantee you superstar talent.
I'd also argue that you don't need "superstars" to be a top team. It helps, but plenty of teams without superstars at the top of the league. Vegas and Carolina come to mind.
Until this team finds legit stars this positive talk of growth doesn’t mean much. They will remain a middling team until they can find the new Toews, Kane, Keith.
