...!@#$ing Treliving...
Well let's not let them off the hook completely here.

They are paying a buyout to Scott Darling this year and the next two. They have a cap recapture on Luongo for this year and next too. So they're around 4 million in dead cap this year, and 2.2 next year.

They have a core of Ekblad, Barkov, and Huberdeau who were drafted #1, 2, & 3 overall in the 2014, 2013, and 2011 drafts. So 3 top 3 picks in a 4 year span and 7 years later....they finally look to have a decent team. One real playoff appearance in this time frame.

So really they have spun their wheels trying to figure things out and that's with having some elite talent that's currenly at prime age.
