2015 comes to mind, feel good story and overachieved and won a round vs the rivals. I remember feeling so good about that and now i look back and its been a decade and we didn't make a single conference final despite how promising things looked because of that year.
I think the long term future will be ( or at least has a better chance) better if the pick is top 10. We are lacking star power in the pipeline. That is fairly obvious.

Because they're lovable as hell.
The organization did the right thing and let 7 UFAs go for futures, moved their starting goaltender without a known replacement, and then took $20M in cap space into the season.
The team isn't getting the memo.
I don't have a problem with that, and the longer it goes on the more I realize I may as well just enjoy it and cheer for it.
