Perhaps a rebuild is the best decision this organization could make in the next year if it looks like Tkachuk won't re-sign long-term. Find a new core to build this team around and become competitive again 5-6 years from now when (hopefully) McDavid and Draisatil have left for greener pastures.

Settle down please. They look shell-shocked probably because the goalie was letting in every 5th shot. The Kings took the Oilers to 7. They aren't some unstoppable juggernaught.
