These are facts you seem intent on ignoring.

Just commenting on the bolded only:
I don't think we know exactly what the plan is. What we are pretty sure about is that this team doesn't believe in burning it right down to the ground, nor will they be spending a lot of draft capital and being big players on the UFA market in an effort to compete now. I do think the big question is how far towards tanking or how far towards competing that pendulum swings.
We will get a better sense when we see the off-season moves that Conroy will make. My early bet is for a bottom 5 pick, but that will obviously change based on those upcoming moves.
