They have been trading all their veteran pending UFA's which is not what I would call building a contender so really no other answer. However it's happening only because their hand was forced, as they tried to extend Lindholm, Hanifin, and Andersson.

I expect patience will be short and that shortcuts will likely be taken the moment they have a hint of premature success in the future.
