Totally checked out. It's pointless to watch a team where the leadership that seems happy just to make the playoffs, with no strategy to build a winning team.
With Kadri, Huberdeau and Markstrom contracts we have some bad contracts. We need to accept we have at 3 years where we likely won't compete, so let's lean in and get great draft picks.
We have great drafting, so accumulating draft picks makes sense.
This draft and TDL will have some big moves: Backlund, Lindholm, Toffoli, Hanifin, Tanev, Vladar at least.
Finally, new coach and hopefully huberdeau rebounds with a new coach so he has some value as a trade piece in 2-3 years.
