All I think when I see San Jose is a team that has for the most part drafted well, and traded well. It is just stupid luck that they are where they are in having Thornton and Marleau still on the team, but they are for the most part a well-managed organization that drafts and develops well, and usually makes good deals and signings. They are the poster child of how a team should be run (for the most part - every single team makes mistakes).

I think they deserve to be where they are at in the playoffs, and it wouldn't surprise me if they go all the way.

Edit: Also, I don't think there is a team in the NHL that rushes to rebuild. I think every team tries to win now, and most end up getting dragged kicking and screaming into a rebuild because they were poorly managed.
