When you look at the top six player on the better teams in the West it's clear there's major building to be done yet.

Calgary
Monahan
Gaudreau
Tkachuk
Lindholm
Giordano

Winnipeg
Scheifele
Wheeler
Byfuglien
Laine
Connor
Ehlers

Ottawa caught a break in keeping last years draft pick over this one.

Caught a break or planned??

Well I don't think they are dumb as everyone thinks they are so it could be planned. I think they were pretty smart to get rid of Karlsson

Absolutely, team is far from legit yet.

By my math we're 3/6 of the way there

I dont understand how anyone can think differently. If one of Bo or EP gets injured then the team goes into a tail spin. We need wayyy more depth and two more elite players

Well...Hughes looks like a reasonably safe bet to being an impact player...so 4/6

the team is barely .500 with both of them in the lineup. We are making strides, but we are not even close to being in the same league as the top teams from any conference.

Managing to get move both Karlsson and Hoffman is a win for sure. Return on both was adequate.

Dont aim too high. 😀

Did either of those teams with those players last season win the SC?

The youngest under 23 group leading the team in the league.

Calgary make the playoffs last season?

which is what you want to see when you are a team who is rebuilding and moving towards a younger/faster/new core, but age is somewhat irrelevant if you are losing consistently. If the team was winning, it would be a nice stat, but right now, its just a stat regarding us rebuilding imo.

Sure didnt but you know better follow their model because they are a good team this year. 😂

So they are further from being competitive because the young players are leading the team?

No to following any model.

The top team is playing at around 72% then the next few 65% and the majority around45- 55% .Then you have a few 40% and under.

There are not major gaps between being bad mediocre and being good. Calgary and Vegas have won 6 more games than us.
