I have, that's the problem. The young guys aren't anything special.
Depends how you define special, but they have all stepped up this year and have put the team in a playoff spot in the extremely competitive western conference. Pavelski, Burns, Vlasic, Jones have all had down years relative to their contract and expectations, and Thornton has missed almost 20 games with injury. Tierney, Meier, Hertl, Donskoi, and LaBanc have 63 goals, 83 assists and 146 points combined. Meier, Hertl, and Donskoi are amongst 3 of the top-30ish possession forwards in the NHL. Chris Tierney is the leading PK'ing forward on the #1 penalty killing team in the NHL. Joakim Ryan has been babysitter for Brent Burns in a year where Burns has seriously struggled defensively when partnered with anybody except Ryan, but has been very good with him. These guys are all 25 or younger. Then you've got Couture who is middle aged with 25 goals and 22 assists despite battling injuries. Martin Jones is also middle aged and while he isn't an elite goaliec he's pretty much proven he can take on 60+ starts and consistently put up average starter numbers at the very worst and he has never been anything but world class in the playoffs. Then you add a 26 year old Kane who already has 20 goals and 20 assists to that bunch and who is also a very good possession player and you're looking at a very solid young group of players, even if they are mostly complimentary players.
They definitely don't have a young elite #1C or #1D but they have ~20M in cap space this off-season and Doug Wilson implied in every way possible that he would be using that cap space to go after Tavares this off season.
