I do think the league is becoming more even. Mike doesn't have the minor league depth anymore.

Shoalzie wroteCOLONIf I waited a year before trading Matthews...could I have gotten more than what I got originally? I'd like to think so. Trading him before he hits the ice is a risk. Mike still could've acquired him after the first year if he really wanted him.
You can complain about Mike acquiring him...he's got the resources to go after these types of players. Resource-rich teams are going to be the ones who can aggressively pursue the hot young players in the league. Mike has McDavid and Matthews. Mik has Laine and several other quality young players. Steve has an excellent young roster and he acquired Hischier.
When you get the #1 pick in this league...it's usually because your team is not very good. This isn't real hockey where if I keep Auston Matthews and all my players magically get better. His stats are his stats alone. He's not so great that he'll elevate my team singlehandedly. I think trading one player for multiple pieces to strengthen your team is a justified move. The best teams in our league are the best teams because they have multiple star players.

Again, there's no coincidence the best teams also have the assets to offer to acquire these young stars. Do you expect those teams to take less just so Mike or Steve or Mik doesn't add another star player? When building teams need multiple pieces...either pay up or shut up.

I also just can't think of any bottom feeders that traded the top pick and are truly much better than they were before (from a long term asset perspective). Except for Will.
I will agree with Matthew though that the league is kind of slowly evening out anyway.
