Just because they sucked, didn't mean they tried to rebuild.
And then they traded their 1st round pick in 2015 instead of drafting Barzal for the established older Hamilton. Then they traded Hamilton, Ferland and their top prospect for Lindholm and Hanafin. Yet we're counting 2015, when they moved their pick for an established player, as a rebuild year?

this guy, you are really losing all credibility here
top prospect that said he would only play for the Rangers
Lindholm/Hanafin>Barzal and that's with hindsight drafting...last I checked Bruins didn't take him with that pick
