Not just old. Almost every single top guy is seriously injury prone - which has almost been an asset until this point while they had assets to trade and exceed the cap - but they are looking very rickety:
Eichel, Stone, Hertl, Theodore (who is UFA in 25) - all major and recurring injury issues.
Pietro will be 36. Draft capital will be completely depleted.
This is a big win for Calgary.
