I would also be curious about what assets put this franchise in a better place? Not really sure what those exactly are

Lindholm, Hanifin, Mangiapane, Tkachuk, Dube, Valamaki, Tanev, Markstrom off the current roster. And, yes, I would say the team is better today than the team that beat the Canucks in 14/15 even if the results aren’t the same. I would also say the scouting department has improved, markedly.
The Zucker trade is moot, and we have no idea how it would have changed things. It’s not really worth much of a discussion.
