From what i gather, there are 4 stages to a rebuild
1) tear down
2) draft and develop
3) contend
4) maintain long term success
The leafs have a plethora of young assets and high draft selections in the next two years. We also have 4 core building blocks in Rielly, Marner, Nylander and the 1st-4th overall selection.
We saw yesterday that the leafs were not desperate to trade PAP for anything less then our asking price, this showed me that
1: the leafs were not going to hinder their future negotiating power by accepting a lesser offer
2: are not desperate for more draft picks
are the leafs done the tear down portion of this rebuild?
