Sorry, I thought you meant blow it up style rebuild. The year Detroit looks like they're missing the playoffs is the year they do it imo.
As an aside, does it hurt fan passion to be too successful for too long? I know there are other factors, but could that be part of the decline in attendance in Vancouver, Detroit, etc? Is it not a good way to build loyalty to have a good/bad cycle
