its kind of a paradox, this 'depth" discussion
on the one hand, you'd like to have NHL caliber players available to step in when someone's injured.
but on the other hand, how many "NHL caliber" players will sign for league minimum, on a team the know that if everyone is healthy they get no ice time?
so pretty much every teams 'depth" is either career tweeners or guys like Mcgrattan.
