Sure, I can see your standpoint but they flames have many assets that could turn into 2023 1st round picks in the future. Everything is lottery protected these days.
You have to push the chips at some point. The owners will absolutely take a Long playoff run of revenue and a chance at the cup for 5-8 years of young guns if it falls apart.
The time is now, it's very clear.
Pelletier fills a clear void in the roster in the future if Johnny/Chucky/Mangipane don't sign long term.
