Tell that to teams with excellent development programs. The ones that seem to stay on top of the league despite drafting low every year as a result of yearly playoff appearances. Fittingly, Detroit is probably the best example of a team like that. Show me one team in the league that has done a better job developing players over the last decade. A lot of that credit likely goes to Ken Holland as much as the various staff he has had in supporting roles.

It's hugely important. If you can't develop your picks/prospects, have fun overpaying in free agency.

LA Kings, Chicago Blackhawks and Boston Bruins have all done well with home grown talent. Maybe not better, but very well.

Is Gary Roberts an option? If so, he has my vote. If nothing else it'd mean more of our guys getting into his biosteel camps. I don't really see how he'd be any less likely to accept the job than Chelios either.

Pretty sure he's making mad coin in the gym.

Nope, take a look at their roster. Bruins only have a couple of their own picks on the roster. They've mostly built that team through trades and signings.

Draft anddeveloped. Does that not include Lucic, Marchand, Bergeron, Boychuck, Krecji (sp?), Hamilton, McQuaid and the recently departed Seguin?

If AV was still coaching this team I would suggest offering the job to Richard Simmons.

Chelios would never leave Detroit to work for a losing organization. Kristy Clark could be player development. Losers teaching losers.
