That's what happens when you take your lumps at the NHL level when your core is past its expiry date and just quietly stock up on futures, rather than putting your resources into squeezing out an early playoff exit.
If we put everything into stockpiling picks for 2-3 years we would be in a similar position, but Canadian clubs experience more pressure to remain competitive at the cost of those futures.
