Building a hockey team from scratch is no easy task.
After all, there's a reason that no first-year NHL franchise has qualified for the playoffs since 1980.
This is because gathering players where you used to have none, assembling a staff and meshing everything together is hard work. Especially when pitted against opponents that have decades of infrastructure, who are years into carefully laid out plans for success, it can be downright difficult to even have a respectable record in a team's formative years.
But while the on-ice product often receives more attention for expansion franchises, it's an equally challenging process to put together a business staff from scratch.
Which although it doesn't always have as much pizzazz as on-ice activity, is equally important to a team's long-term success.
