Alex wrote today about how the Detroit Red Wings need to avoid defense at #6. Though I see value in the argument, the Red Wings should still have a “best player available” philosophy regardless of their position on the ice.

Not one fan will question the notion that Detroit could use a talent infusion nearly everywhere–especially as more contracts fall off of the books.
