In a sense I'm glad to hear what we heard tonight and the 3 firsts (or 1st and 4 2nds) will jump start this rebuild faster than pinning everything on a great young player.

Look at TB with Stamkos and Car with E Staal. Fantastic players but without a supporting cast they both finished in bottom 5.

Stock the cupboards and suck up the next 2-3 years. Do it the right way and don't take shortcuts.[/QUOTE]


I don't really see it as a short cut. Even with McKinnon on the flames next year they would have been a bottom 5 team.

Except this year early-mid 2nds are being compared to late firsts in previous drafts. This is an exceptional year.
