Chicago had Seabrook and Keith already in the system by the time they drafted Toews and Kane. Plus Bolland, Brouwer, Hjammersson, Byfuglein, Crawford were already in the system. They just needed the two elite players. That's why their rebuild seemed fast, but in reality, the Toews, Kane additions were at the end of the rebuild.
Then they got Sharp in a trade and added Campbell and Hossa as UFA's.
