Weegar is our only legit 1st liner on either side of the ice. So again, what are we retooling around? When Boston retooled they had Bergeron and Marchand and McAvoy. We have poop.

And the Huberdeau, Kadri, Weegar, and Coleman contracts are only going to become less cap efficient as the players age.
So even if the team were to retool now to compete in 3 years, at that point, the contract situation would make it very difficult to truly content.
