The starting point makes it look much worse than it is, especially since it's starts just after our most successful years in the league. Most of the 90's and early 00's we couldn't afford to keep our players given our small market status. I think starting after the 04/05 lockout would be a better measuring stick, and yeah it's still not good but not as grim as the picture painted above.
