Your plan requires great faith in our prospect pool. Remember, there's no Kakko, Hugues, Dalhin, Shevnikov, MAtthews, MArner etc in our prospect pool. Today Habs are an average team (ranking between 10-20). With our prospects, in 5 years we will also be a good team, but an average 10 to 20 team. That's just the real projection.
I'm for you plan ONLY if the next 2-3 years we try to tank and draft really really high. The only way to be so bad is to trade 2 or 3 players amongst Tatar, Danault, Petry, Gallagher. Any UFA you're NOT thinkin of resigning in 2 years, trade now. And replace them with the kids , starting this year. Lehkonen gets full ice time. Put Suzuki with Domi, not with Byron. KK with Drouin, not Lehk.
In that case, yes i'm for your plan. Either going for it, or completing the rebuild, but if we go only halfway, we'll still have an average team. And one more thing...hope that
Primeau is good cause Price will be on the decline in 4-5 years (37 years old)
