I vote for a retool but after thinking about for awhile I think a rebuild is the only option. Gaudreau and Monahan need to go, trade them for picks and prospect (I think our scouts have done a decent job in recent years). Build around Tkachuk, Lindholm, Backlund, Bennett, Dube, Mangiapane, Hanifin, Anderson and Valimaki. Every one else is expendable
Sign a real #1 goalie
Hire a actual NHL coach with playoff sucess and experience
Hire a good GM, one who has built winning teams before
