I think it takes more than 2 years to be “one of the best teams”. In 21-22 they will probably be a fringe playoff team and might make it in. In 22-23 they could be a legitimate playoff team. But that would make it 23-24 before they are a legitimate cup contender. That is reliant on a number of prospects and young players to continue to develop without setbacks.
That being said LA has done a great job of drafting and developing so far and will be fun to watch in the coming years.
For Werenski I think CBJ requires a 1st to go with Turcotte which LA should not do because if they have a setback that could be another OTT or SJ situation. They can try it before the 2021 draft and do the 2021 second (LA) and the 2022 second (LA) but I still think CBJ would want something more without the first.
