This is so overblown at the moment. Oh, how do we have this rebuild and now a terrible cap structure? Let me tell you - two unreal lottery wins, signing one of the best FA's in our history (who could have gone to our rival and may have given them a cup last year), and of course trading a second round pick for one of the youngest Norris winners ever. Give me a break. Things change year over year and right now were in one of the most interesting situations in the league.
Goodrow, Blais, Reaves are solid yet unspectacular additions but they're such a small part of the equation here. The bigger pieces are (1) Gallant's system (2) will our young talented core can take another step and (3) is there another move that will be made right now with our cap space and overload of talent not currently on the roster.
