Above all, I would caution to not trade too many draft picks. The more 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round picks we've got the better. Thats the best chance at gamebreaker type players IMO. The draft.
If Zary, Phillips, or Pelletier could come in soon and play a top 6 role that changes things a lot. But none of them are 'blue chip' prospects.
The never ending cycle of being not bad enough to get generational players, and not good enough to win anything continues. But make the playoffs and you've got a chance at least.
