And now they're rebuilding?
I don't think this is entirely a fair assessment, as 1, some of the players you mentioned were traded as draft picks or very young, so they were essentially magic beans. 2, some of the players were traded/walked before the current management group came in so it's not fair to say it's their fault. and 3, some of the players were traded so they could rebuild.
Then again, I shouldn't be defending them as a Wild fan, but my point stands
I love this deal, but I worry this signals the end for Backstrom. He just hasn't looked the same since returning from the hip injury and I'm not sure where he slots in past this year. Hopefully this is just a slow start and he proves me wrong, but I think this may be a sign of Backstrom being LTIRetired after this year.
