Even this "worst case scenario" is not all that bad, though. If the team turns out be pushed into a rebuild, there are plenty of valuable recoupable assets that can be moved at the TD and leading up to the 2023 Draft, even without Gaudreau or Tkachuk. It's so weird to me that many seem to think that these are the only players of any value on the roster.
