I think becoming a team who can win the cup is the goal here, not just make the playoffs. That isn't good enough and many fans on here would agree. I don't think we are following the Ottawa path at all. I think we have a few great pieces for our future, a #1 Dman, #1a/b centre (Bennett and Monahan) and a good supporting cast in our veterans. We actually have depth at other positions. We are in a good space, it is all about asset management and player development now.
Bubble teams won't cut it here and I think Treliving and Burke know that. We also have a great coach who has won at the NHL level before, we are in a for wild ride over the next few seasons and it is just starting now!
