Did he really though?
He inherited a team with Bergeron, Krejci,Chara, Marchand, Krug, Rask, Pasta, Lucic,Hamilton and Tuukka. That’s 4 hall of famers and 2 will be knocking on the door. He handcuffed himself in the 2015 draft , and the Nash and Backes deals leading up to the 2019 finals. He did add Coyle an Johansson during the cup run, but any Owner to say Sweeney built that team wouldn’t have done their due-diligence.
