Become?

The moment the Canadian dollar dropped below par they turned back into the same sad sack franchise they were in the early 90's. The salary cap and revenue sharing help... but there is nothing else to really point at and feel good about.

They are in no way a desirable destination. The only way to become one would be to become a cup contender. Good luck with that since situations like this and Kane seem to indicate nobody wants to be there in the first place.
