Do you think Boston envisioned trading Marchand and selling at the deadline after adding Lindholm and Zadorov last offseason?
San Jose chose to rebuild 3 seasons after acquiring Karlsson?
Things can evolve and/or change fast in the NHL. Aspiring to be like Dallas is predicated on those picks we're so excited about actually hitting in the NHL. This is a nice vision to have, it's a convenient one for ownership because it means you're perennially competitive and your amateur scouting is routinely winning drafts.
Could we be Dallas? Sure. But we could also be San Jose.
As for fans, what we do makes no difference, but condemning people by saying 'this is the direction, quiet you' makes for a not so fun vibe around here. How things unfold is anyone's guess.
