I don't see them being stanley cup contenders at any point unless they somehow snag another franchise player in the draft. If they took Draisaitl over Reinhart, I might feel differently as Draisaitl is someone you can build around while Reinhart is a decent, albeit "complementary" player. The Draisaitl effect is synergistic as it would not only improve Buffalo but make a fellow contender EDM over in the west, weaker.
Who knows what Eichel will be too. Right now his PPG over 82 games is 65 points which is underwhelming for the player he was hyped to be and probably 15-20 points too low.
Risto's showed some promise but looks like he took a step back and I'm not sure he will ever be than franchise guy on the backend most cup teams have. And the depth behind him on the blueline is meh.
Am I seeing it wrong?
