Ya I could have used other wording especially for FLA...they are still a funny case where it looked like it was going to continue to fail despite having so many seemingly good pieces in the right positions, but it wasn't until Zito took his buy low approach that it finally clicked (of course Q had a big part of it, too).
Over the last few years I thought MIN's roster and cap situation looked dire. But Kaprizov shows up out of nowhere and some other things clicked and they've at least remained a consistent playoff team. The cap actually hits the fan this year, but I wouldn't be surprised if they're playing again in late April.

Winning the division and playing with Tkachuk and Lindholm seem like Johnny was loving the game this year. I can see him leaving $10 mil on the table to keep it going.

Which is fair enough, but unless you and your best buddies are all getting similar term with NMCs then it shouldn't be a priority (for anyone in any job - enjoy the good times & camaraderie while it lasts, but you can never bank on it continuing)
