...and as angry as I can be on here, I get excited about almost every move they make because it's fun and entertaining.
But switching to a tank/rebuild model? Oh my...oh that would be exciting. I'd happily continue to pay for season tickets to support this direction. Have a fresh, young team developing together and a new hockey arena coming online hopefully around the same time the team turns a corner? Very cool.

Even though I thnk we could have avoided it if we sold at the deadline and I still think a re-tool could work. I also would be very excited to actually see this team do a full rebuild.
Take Arizona's roster, picks and prospect situation but remove the financial issues and I would easily trade our current roster/prospect pool/picks for theirs. They are likely to get a top 6 pick, have plenty of picks. They probably have the worst situation other than maybe the Sharks of the bottom teams.
Montreal, Columbus, Anaheim all could be elite teams very soon. Even if they fail, at minimum they will have franchise players to cheer for and watch every night.
