It would be just a reload at this stage. I doubt fans would be too upset.
Why? "from last year's all star break to now we have enough data to know last year's reg season result was an anomaly."

So the team had a top 10 record over the last 4 months. They are 2pts out of home ice through the first 2 rounds and they are going to sell off and tank for a couple of second round picks and prospects that maybe get a cup of coffee in the league?
I am not sure how many of the STH base would think that is acceptable? There definitely are some that would be okay with that. If this season was out of reach completely it would be another story but considering they are this close I would be furious and feel my money was wasted. That coupled with how impossible it is the resell tickets I think they would be risking a fair number of cancellations.
If the season ends poorly they can still say the things you are stating and make huge organizational changes over the summer
