You could rebuild for decades and not get all that, in fact it's very likely
Flames absolutely have the base if they can keep Gaudreau

On top of this 3/4 top-4 defenders are 25 or younger. Their top line is aged 24-28. If you blow it up every time one of your top players gets to the ripe old age of 28, then you're going to be perpetually rebuilding.
Assuming the Flames can keep Gaudreau, they are probably about 2 good moves away from being legit favorites.
Fans are letting 2-3 bad games (at very inopportune time) justify a rebuild and ignoring the other 80+ good games.
