I agree that there has to be a change. The question is of it costs something like Thachuk, 2 1sts, and a prospect, is that worthwhile just for the sake of taking a chance? IMO, wholeheartedly no. If it doesn’t work, you’ve lost the chance of a rebuild by losing three futures, and dealing Eichel won’t gain you the same return. So you’re back into rebuilding without high picks to choose from. Personally I think they should package Monahan and a depth bottom two player for two prospects who have the potential to be on the top lines, and blow this year to get a high pick. Surely that isn’t ideal but it could set the team up for a positive future without a complete tear down.
