Will still support the team for life but man I'm tired. Just over a decade since we last had a cup contending team we were bound to go on a low and "rebuild" or whatever you want to call it. Fine all good it happens to a lot of cup contending teams that pass their time to win. We know building a winning team you need to do a lot of right things and sometimes just get damn lucky. Drafting is obviously one of the areas that's key among many. Horvat was the first one we had, seemed ok at the time nothing spectacular. Boeser was the first real feels we had, amazing rookie year and was a finalist for the Calder. EP40m Hughes, and some other guys some of which ended up being a bust but at least there was a mixture of buzz and in some cases actual results that you were seeing. Things were on the up and up as we were all patient with the process. Yea some bonehead moves among among other things along the way but holy shit now years later I don't even know where we are to be honest. We're a capped out team that isn't even a playoff team like I have no idea what to even expect anymore and can't help that we're pretty much fucked despite having some really good pieces that some people would kill for such as a legit #1 starter at a good price. Grade A offensively minded defensemen to drive our offence in Huggie Bear and yea you can argue about the rest in terms on whether or not they're elite, untouchable or whatever i.e. EP40 etc. Fucking shit so frustrating.
