Should rebuild.
No #1 goalie
No elite #1 C and nothing in the pipeline
No elite #1 D and nothing in the pipeline (Gio is almost 37 and declining hard)
With a flat cap and some good young players with value, you'd think they could really load up on high end futures this off season.
I mean what can you get from Buffalo if you offer Monahan, Hanifin and also agree to take Okposo back?
What can you get for Gaudreau if you call Philly and offer him up with 50% retention and also take Ghost back in the deal?
Probably some pretty sweet futures I would think.
They won't though. They'll shuffle the deck chairs around hoping for a miracle.
