I have no problem with them keeping Whitecloud, given it's unlikely they'd get a 1st for him. Protecting Wolf's confidence through a rebuild is going to be important, so having a guy or two to block shots and move the puck is nice. Losing sucks but it doesn't mean losing 7-2. It can be 2-1. Next though, I really hope Kadri and Coleman go. Their value will never be higher. Draft top end potential guys and continue, but you can't go full-rebuild through burning Wolf's confidence. Losing can be acceptable through minimizing the goals against while also not outscoring your opponent.
