Colorado just added Mackinnon to a roster that includes Landeskog and Duchene. For example. This rebuild is just started.

Monahan is already putting up numbers comparable to Toews rookie year with not near the talent around him and there is not another hockey prospect in anybody elses club with the hockey IQ and raw talent of Gaudreau. If it was not for him being small he would be the top ranked prospect in all of hockey. You can't teach the skills that Johnny naturally has.
