I suspect if within the next 2 years we are still spinning our wheels we will be looking at another rebuild. Will we lose more players for nothing while other teams are making trades!!

Losing Brodie and Hamonic for nothing is just bad business. We were in a battle for a playoff spot though so I kind of get it.
As for progress. The team made no progress since Treliving came here. Playoff bubble and a first round fodder.
Today, he re-tooled the team in a substantial way. Make a change to the top line and this team is nothing like last season.
Maybe it will blow up in his face, but it's unfair to say that this team is stagnant.
