He for sure should have made changes to the core after the Avalanche series...
He is cautious for sure, which is not a bad thing....

I don't mind if it's the case of him overvaluing his players. Underselling on a shallow upper end talent pool would be a disaster. He's obviously undervalued his draft picks in the past (and arguably still does today). While I'm not a Treliving fan after the Colorado loss, I'd rather this mediocrity than dealing for a star by giving the prospects and high draft picks which he's done in the past. Especially right now where we're shallow on high end talent, high end prospects, and salary is tied up on all four lines. I do believe their best choice would be to build through the draft and my #1 choice would be to get the equivalent of 2 1sts from a team for Monahan. I think it's entirely possible from a team like Carolina.
