When everyone except stutzle and Sanderson are over 30 years old? THEN we'll make the playoffs?They are kids. Ask me in 4-5 years.
Perhaps you mean to say that stutzle and Sanderson can be part of a good core, but the rest of the older core pieces should be switched out?
Like why should we expect major improvements of guys like Chabot, Zub, norris, Tkachuk, batherson, etc from ages 25 to 30 to go from bottom of the league to top of the league?
I don't care about your time.
That is sunk cost fallacy. No reason to mess with the core now that they have good coaching and management behind them.
Surround them with some more depth and all will be well.

The players care about time. In 5-6 years, half our core will be over the hill.
If you're saying ask me in 5-6 years about a bunch of 24-25-26-27 year olds, then just say "no. The core as is isn't good enough" because you shouldn't expect major improvements from anyone outside of the young guys like stutzle and Sanderson and Greig...but in combination with the decline of guys like Giroux which will offset some of the gains from the young guys.
Most of the core is in their prime years though, and they're struggling to get out of the basement for several years in a row now.
