I'm looking past this year and its worse not better lol

less deep and the same or worse D
Every year, you can reliably trade a 1st round pick and two 2nds for a Hanifin/Hamilton/Provorov/Ellis/whoever.

Someone quality.

Every year, there are competent Chris Tanev level defensemen available.

You can draft them, but probably not in time for this core - best be trading 1sts in more aggressive moves.

You don’t have to fix it all in one go, but throughout the length of these contracts, yes, it’s a fixable issue.
