We do not need to take that risk right now. When the team is further along maybe, but right now don’t potentially sewer the rebuild just as it begins.
Just do exactly what Carolina does.

Done.

That is the most successful small market team that continues to give itsself a 1 in 8 chance to win a cup every year, without mortgaging the future and continuing to resupply their feeder system and not locking into cap hell decisions.

I’d take 5 years of crap to have ten years+ of that.
