I find it's so easy to just throw around 5 years, 2 years, etc, and declare we'll be rebuilt by then. Who knows. Will the west be this hard in 2 years? Will it get harder? Will it get easier? Maybe Gaudreau turns into a super star, maybe he's a total bust. At least were heading in the right direction and not depleting our draft picks and bleeding our future like previous regimes.
You gotta think that in a league where slightly over half the teams make the playoffs that we will get in by a pure numbers game in the next couple seasons.. but this is where the west strength comes into play. Some pretty decently teams and well run franchises missed the playoffs... it will be a very tough go next season.
So I guess my short answer is .. if things go perfectly the rebuilds done in 2 years and we can move into reload territory. If things go ok, longer.
