Just prepare yourself for maybe a decade of this, think of it as comedy (it is hilarious on some level), and enjoy watching Gaudreau before he demands a trade.

Future is very bright. Stay calm.
We have about 7 core pieces in place. Need about 6 more with at least 2-3 in our farm system already. The rest are fillers or role players.
Gaudreau, Bennett, Monahan, Colborne,
Giordano, Brodie, Hamilton,
Two of Poirier/Klimchuk/Jankowski/Mangiapane will pan out as top 6 scorer
One of Gillies/McDonald will be our franchise goalie.
Two of Kulak/Hickey/Andersson/Kylington will be top 4 Dmen.
No need to panic. That's exactly what all the other teams want us to do.
No Marc Savard trade please...
Lets get Russell/Hudler/and one of Ramo/Hiller back on track so we can get picks back before trade deadline. 2016 is a good prospect pool to put the last pieces in place...
