Currently the best & worst rebuilds ongoing

[rahad]

Surprised no one has mentioned the Rangers. I guess they are a bit of an anomaly as they sold off a bunch of their veteran core pieces and got a #1 and a #2 OA without truly bottoming out for multiple years

Yeah.... Rangers got 2 elites players for free. They also play in New York. Not hard to attract UFA.

One of the best rebuild is Winnipeg.

I'm old enough to remember when the leafs were good. That should clear up my age somewhat.

No, that’s not really helping ,
They’ve never won 3 rounds

the sabres look like a team that is in need of rebuild. too bad they are in the middle of one already.

Should be able to get one this year. Some good centers in the top 7-8 picks.

Agreed, and even if habs move Dach permanently to the wing...Demidov, Hage + all the kids playing well in Laval and 7 top 50 picks next summer, habs will be fine imo

As a Detroit fan I don’t wanna hear anyone who acquired a top 3 pick complaining about lottery luck. We never even got to pick higher than 4 and we iced statistically the worst team in the cap era.

Canucks were putrid and never picked above 5, and made playoffs after 8 year's absence if you discount the fluke run in COVID. thats not a solid excuse. Good management makes a world of difference.

Not to mention bled a shit ton of draft capital.

Kings are headed directly for a cliff in a year or two

Completely botched their rebuild and created a black hole team with no future

I think you’ll see everyone Byfield’s age and older with new franchises by 2026-2027 when they start a real rebuild instead of an arrogant “we’re actually smarter than everyone” retool

How Blake is still employed is beyond me.
