Not saying this is the right way at all, but we haven't had a full rebuild since the late 90s and I'm not sure ownership wants to go through a tumultuous era like that again. Nothing more than a 're-tool' it seems.

Did they even rebuild in the late 90's?
It's not like 2004 was the culmination of a rebuild. Both their goalies went down and they lucked into a Hall of Fame caliber goalie by trading a 2nd and going on a Cinderella run. And then the game changed.
They've been re-tooling for 20 years now.
