My point is that trading Iggy and Kipper, and
aiming for suckage three years ago would've been a poor decision given that - in my estimation - we were one good center away from making the playoffs last season.
Not really so bizarre. Scorched earth is a poor policy, and there are ways to improve the team without it. Brad Richards is a good example, because he was an opportunity to improve the team by leaps and bounds all in one go. Our prospects have been improving incrementally despite not going full on suck.
