I am ok with a tank, this season was always going to be boring without home games to attend. Trade off most of vets that will not be there on the other side. Backlund, Gio, Lucic and perhaps JG if he does not sign. You can’t trade Tkachuk because he is in the youngest group and is just slumping, that makes no sense. Trading the vets will typically have a disproportionate effect on wins and losses. It allows you to retain talent while ending up in a better draft position.

This team needs to rebuild through the draft. We are at where Toronto was at the end of Burke’s tenure there.
