Thank god we've stayed competitive the last few years. This fanbase couldn't take a rebuild.

Two things....God is with a capital “G”, and, we just went through an unintentional rebuild, where have you been? We survived! The past five seasons we finished 14th last, 9th last, 6th last, 2nd last & 3rd last, that’s how we got Podkolzin, Hughes, Pettersson & Juolevi.

Benning is a genius

I am told you can teach defense, but offense is different.

"Bill Torrey went back to Al Arbour and said, 'Here's our choice,'" Craig Button said. "'We can take this guy, he's a really good two-way player, more of a defensive player, really knows how to check. Or we can get this guy, he might be a prolific scorer at the NHL level, but his defense isn't good.' Al Arbour said to Bill Torrey, 'Let's take the scorer, I can teach him to check. I can't teach the checker how to score.'"

From 2nd last to 14th last in five seasons...excellent progression.

19th last next season?



Genius!!

He did answer McCrimmon's call.

Al took a point per game scorer and turned him into a poor checking centre.

I'm going to go ahead and assume you're responding to my sarcasm with sarcasm cause if you actually thought I was serious

2017 draft they sold their number 1 center and best goalie prospect for some draft picks. Rebuild begins.

So technically coming into year 4.

Raanta was 28, not quite a prospect.

And Zibanejad was already beginning to take over the #1 spot from Stepan at that point.

Nope.

Raanta was an up and coming goalie.

So what you are saying is that really didn't go for a rebuild, they were just re-stocking on the fly?

12 Baltimore Ravens including Lamar Jackson test positive for Covid-19.

Idiots

Asset management - they still had The King, and two other goalie prospects that were better.
