Why commit to s afull rebuild before we even get to see what we have in the AHL? These kids are winning and now have dominated 2 years in a row.
I'm not suggesting any are superstars in the NHL but their ceiling is right there or better than guys like Backlund, Toffoli, Mangiapane, Coleman. Move who you can and call these guys up and see what happens? What if the team is as good but now you found yourself $20 mil in cap space?
Throw on top a bit of a slide in the short term and extra picks in the draft, you never know it could turn around very quickly. This draft is deep.
