Even though I don’t totally agree with 2 points
1. I think there’s likely more tearing down ahead. Coleman, Andersson and maybe Kadri and Weegar yet. Backlund isn’t the the greatest choice for captain either
2. I don’t know how much elite talent is in the pipeline
I certainly prefer this position to teaching to lose.
The team was built to suck but they played their hearts out and got terrific goaltending. We have cap, some really good prospects for once and still quite a few picks to make. I’ll take that every day of the week
