I still expect this team drops, but we don't need to lose 30 more games than we win to get a star.
Leafs got Matthews with a 69 point season
NJ got Hughes with a 72 point season.
Colorado got Mackinnon with a 67 point season
Tampa got Stamkos with a 71 point season
Chicago got Kane with a 71 point season.
These are just 1st OV examples. Lots of stars picked in the top 3 and the team did not need to completely tank.
This team doesn't have any big decisions this year to worry about. They can see how it goes and as long as they don't trade 1st in a position where they are a borderline playoff team, they are fine having a good start.
This team will not be in 1st in the division come the trade deadline, unless Wolf keeps it up. If he does, we have an elite goalie and maybe trading for a star center is the right move.

I agree they don't need to be sjs bad. Being somewhat competitive and getting a top pick is best case for us over the next couple years in my opinion.
It's hard to do bith but not impossible. Need a bit of luck.
