People can blame the GM / coach and I question some of their decisions, but the bottom line is we are at a disadvantage with a 10M gap in our cap until 2022-23 season. Yes you can blame JB/Linden for the Eriksson signing and a few for the Luongo recapture.
We just don't have the depth to compete until this 10M is off the books, so now is the time to get a couple good picks hopefully, develop our youth and basically do what Ottawa is doing.
Don't give prospects or picks away to dump Eriksson, Roussel, and even Beagle. Ride it out, and get excited for our prospects, and see how our young stars improve their game. We have talent that just needs some more time.
2022-23 will be a new start for who ever is on charge which will see us in the top half of the league to start, and hopefully be a top 5 team by 23-24.
This rebuild started 3 years ago after the Sedin era, so it isn't out of the realm to expect to wait a bit longer.
