Finding the "best" players

I did an earlier post about how teams like the Lakers, Jazz, and Spurs draft and acquire players who fit their style. In other words, instead of getting the "best" players, they look for players who fit into their schemes the "best."

Add the NHL's Detroit Red Wings to that list. Last week, Michael Farber on SI.com quoted Detroit GM Ken Holland:

"We draft, trade and look for free agents that fit that style."
