Compare that to our core of Gaudreau (24), Monahan (23), Hamilton (24), Tkachuk (20).... well basically we have a lot of time on our side. The big thing is finding a goalie to go along with that core (hopefully Rittich is the real deal!) and then adding good support. If one of Bennett or jankowski could break out it’d make a big difference I think. This team certainly needs to make the next step but everyone talking about this 3 year window... I don’t get it personally. Or acting like whatever results we get this season are absolutely indicative of what this group of players can do.

I'm actually quite shocked how well Chara is playing for his age and size.
thought he'd be a broken down wreck and out of the league by now.
just playing very, very smart and also still bullying people with his size, I guess.
