I’m not really in the full rebuild camp. But I do think a rebuild of the core needs to happen this offseason. Players I would include in the group that needs to be shaken up would be:

Tkachuk
Monahan
Giordano
Gaudreau
Dube

If 2 to 3 of them are moved in the expansion draft or through trades I don’t think it would be a bad thing.

The bottom 6 forwards could all be moved in my mind. Only ones I would keep being Backlund and Ryan. Lucic was a good veteran presence last year. If he stayed I wouldn’t be unhappy.

So not sure if the above constitutes a “rebuild” “retool” or a “shuffle. But I’d be onboard with something like that.
