I see you ask essentially the exact same question every day here, but alright.
Player development takes time. We cant just expect players we bring in to be successful immediately. They need runway to learn and adjust. This means the team might find less success while they get their legs under them. I would rather marry that timeline to the timeline of us bottoming out draft wise and seeking a top line player through the draft. Rather than bleeding out the life of players like kadri and backlund to block development timelines for our already fairly longshot top 6 prospects and ensuring we draft 15th next summer.
How is honzek going to be a legit top 6 prospect in 2 years if he is never once given 5 games to play there? He won't.
