I would rather be in the playoffs for seven straight years then miss the playoffs for 50 straight besides he's not rebuilding but tweaking
Let's come back to reality here. 50 straight is an extreme exaggeration, the longest current drought is the Carolina Hurricanes with 9, and look how stacked that team is for the future. Aho, Teuvo, Svechnikov, Necas, Nino, Slavin, Hamilton, Pesce, and Fox are some huge pieces to build a team around. So you're saying you're happy with this team's core? Because tweaking doesn't involve moving core pieces. You're happy with the way Zucker, Granlund, Staal, and Coyle are playing? I'm certainly not. I wouldn't be surprised if we do rebuild is all I'm saying, even if it's just a partial rebuild. Fenton knows this team isn't good enough to win a cup, and so does Leipold. While I may not agree with everything Leipold does, he's stuck by his statement of wanting to bring a cup here and he has given Fenton the green light to move anybody on this team which absolutely signals more than a tweak.
So let's play a little would you rather: would you rather this team spins it's tires in the mud and constantly loses in the first two rounds like they've proven they'll do? Or would you rather have a legitimate shot at a cup by tearing some core pieces down. Because that's what we're facing right now and I'll take a shot at the cup with a different core every single time over the ceiling of this core (which is good enough to make it but not good enough to get it done).
