Do you think SJ expected a shot at the cup this season? Calgary in 04?
I'm not saying got crazy and trade away all your future assets but an NHL team should try to ice the best possible lineup. With the salary cap the difference between the top teams to the bottom is smaller than ever.

For sure. I don't like when people say stuff like the "Flames won't even compete for another two years at the earliest, so why waste money on x or y"
Screw that, compete now. Don't go all in and mortgage the future, don't trade away prospects or picks for rentals at the deadline, but do still ice the most competitive roster you can.
