Great point. Longer term thinking is necessary to build a team that is competitive for years to come.
From my perspective we can ice a team next year without being forced to push a kid into the line up if he's not 100% ready and has shown that with consistency. Which is perfect.
If a kid shows up to camp and beats out a veteran then you have a good problem to deal with.
That said I can understand from a season ticket holders perspective that paying that type of money justifies the desire to be entertained for the money they are spending. That's fair. But it's not what's best for the club or the kids and if a season ticket holder has a problem with this philosophy they don't have to renew their tickets.
