By this guys definition the bruins/kings/hawks never went through a rebuild.

It sucks that this article was written from such a biased perspective, because this is a very fertile topic that should be given more thought IMO. On the fan a week or two ago Treliving said he had been giving a look towards how teams like Philly and LA had stocked up on talent, I wonder what his thoughts on how to rebuild a franchise are.
The Kings (Hickey, Doughty and Schenn) and Chicago (Barker, Toews and Kane) do fit the criteria
