I mean its not like they're going to say, we're rebuilding, our team will be AHL bad for 3 years while we do this so we're charging AHL dollars for tickets.
The mandate for a club beyond doing everything they can to win a cup, is to supply good value for their dollar. and good entertainment for the dollar.
trading every good player with value for magic beans and hope and watching a subpar team stumbling around on the ice getting blown out, and people saying, well they're awful but they work hard. I could see attendance plummeting badly.

So if you're GM with an unlimited leash on what to do
Do you try to rebuild or plug the holes?
IF you rebuild you go for a team that sits in the bubble?
