The Bruins have done it without any top-10 picks, and it’s not as if they’ve been lights out at the draft table (see 2015 in particular), but when they made a good NHL pick they made it count - Bergeron, Marchand, Pastrnak, McAvoyThe thing is if you draft well and develop a contending core , you can stretch your contending/competitive window a near decade
Sharks , Ducks, Kings , Hawks, Bruins , TB , Pens all have been solid for many years with a few blips along the way
The latter is something the Habs simply have been unable to do since 2007
