Yeah, Chicago would like you to think the rebuild "started" with the Toews pick but the reality is they had 5 top 10 picks in the 8 years before they picked Toews.
Really they had started stockpiling picks as early as the year 2000, and had made 98 draft picks in the 8 years prior to drafting Toews.
That would be like letting Oilers fans say the re-built started when they drafted McDavid.
