Slightly better than that is barely missing the playoffs or an early exit coupled with middle first round draft picks, marginal prospects and boat anchor contracts given to your 2 highest paid players.
How can it get worse than where we currently are?

I don't remember who on this forum has it in their signature, but a pessimist thinks things can't get any worse. An optimist knows they can.
How can it get worse?
Remember when the Flyers traded multiple pieces including a 1st round pick for Ristolainen? Or when the Canucks traded a high 1st for OEL?
Now, imagine what mistakes can make as an organization that thinks anything can happen if they squeak into the playoffs when they currently have all of their 1st round picks and a bottom third prospect pool?
If you think things can't get any worse, you aren't imaging hard enough.
