- Vezina winning goalie
- Heir apparent goalie who's only 24
- Really nice 1-3 D men all locked up long term
- Probably the best goal scorer in the league for the next 5 years
- At least a few more good years of Marchand, who just dipped below ppg for the first time in 7 years
- No bad contracts
You can rebuild for a loooong time and get maybe half of the bullets above.
Cupboards are bare, but they could always move a goalie...though that probably isn't a fit for the few teams with good C's potentially available.
