The initial core of this team is already gone. Monahan in a wheelchair, Gio gone, Gaudreau gone. What's left is Tkachuck who has shown way less signs of being interested to stay in Calgary than Gaudreau, so the odds for that are very low imo.
To me this is already on a path to an inevitable rebuild, the question is will the management accept that or try to pretend they're still close to being a contender and just need a re-tool.
