All I want is a team that looks good enough that I can see a plausible path to the cup. They don't need to win the cup, but I need it to seem plausible enough that I want to cheer for them.
Some of the Iginla Kiprusoff teams hit that mark and it was fun.
The Tkachuk Gaudreau era never had a team that was good enough to get my hopes up. All those teams were too flawed, they never had enough pieces to make it. Trying to patch it up with UFA spending and trading futures turned into a depressing death spiral.
Wolf gives me hope for the future, but goalie god mode alone is not plausible enough. There is so much building left to do.
