With Yzerman not trading Stamkos, they're going to push for a Cup this year. If we can take advantage of that, cool.

If between now and June 30th, we can add Drouin and one of Matthews, Puljujarvi, Laine, Tkachuk, or Chychrun - we'd be at a point of critical mass with young talent that we can then get aggressive and start spending some assets to address specific team needs, even if "overpaying" is required.

i could live with this
