Chicago has continued to insulate the core with great drafts and UFA signings, being able to keep up the overall team quality despite the natural revolving door of supporting cast members. Much different than changing out core building blocks.
I don't necessarily agree. I think Winnipeg is a pretty well built team that hasn't put it all together. They're big, they're mean, and they have talent. If hate to face them in the playoffs. But unfortunately their coaching and depth has left something to be desired. They're also a small market franchise that's been struggling to spend to the cap
