Rebuild is the right route, at least for now. You've got LA, Edmonton, Vegas who imo are for-sure playoff starters, and then you've got WC teams with Seattle, Calgary, and Vancouver. Assuming they are worse than Anaheim next season, they are worst i the division. They're going to need to rebuild whether they like it or not.
They should rebuild. But I'm starting to think they worry about lost ticket sales. My bet.....they plan on having Will Smith on the team (mistake) and wanted Tarasenko for him to then flip for something at the deadline. Then they advertise the #### out of that. Losing Karlsson is going to hurt more.
