The full rebuild talk is odd, I'm actually vastly more optimistic about this team looking forward than I was last year.
We have Gersich, Pinho, Siegenthaler, Johnsson Fjallby, Johansen, Bowey, Djoos, Stephenson, Boyd, and Samsonov all potentially vying for roster spots at some point next year. We likely have a different coach. We're going to have more cap to work with than we have had for a while. We might be in on the Karlsson trade talks. We have a first round pick. We are likely seeing a big return in a trade for one of our G's.
Our team is getting younger and faster next year, assuming GMBM doesn't trade away a lot of these guys for dinosaurs. Our bottom 6 is going to be fun to watch and our top 6 will likely be Wilson, Kuzy, Ov, Vrana, Backstrom, Bura (?).
The only obvious wart to me for next year is the Orpik contract still has a year on it. If we keep Carlson I think it will be at a discount, if we lose him we have that much more money to work with.
We have a way more exciting roster next year as compared to this year.
