No, absolutely not. We’ve have drafted those players, we have them already.
Acquiring someone else’s 25 year old Zary? That’d be the stupid thing to do in this situation.
We should be subtracting the veterans (Kuzmenko, Vladar, Mantha, Andersson) and hoping the team does bottom out while the youth do their best to prevent it.
To go back to the Leafs as an example, Zary should be our Kadri. We need a Matthews, and we absolutely should not go out and get a Tavares.

The tickets sell whether this team is good or not.
You’ve yet to really argue anything of merit. You can’t bring up an example of a team (because there isn’t one) building a Championship team without drafting the type of player I’m talking about. You just keep pointing back to my “ridiculous” statement while changing the goal post from talking about a Stanley Cup Champion to “selling tickets”.
