I said I don't know how they are going to get that plug and play piece without drafting top 5 which they won't this year, or next year, or the year after that most likely. The only path to that player is trading prospects/picks to get it and I don't know if that path is viable either.

Your chances of trading for a top line, elite center is near zero. Eichel was a unicorn with wanting out of a terrible franchise AND going in for a type of neck surgery no one had done in the NHL before. But generally speaking your number one center that solidifies you as a contender is going to be a top end draft pick. Which this team likely isn't getting anywhere near. So really, you didn't disagree with it you were just tired of hearing about it, but you and Dino7c didn't present it that way throughout the season.
