no ronnie no party

No hate cause the deal is reasonable but never happens.
Karlsson has a NMC and gets to pick where he goes and I promise you a rebuilding Philly is low on that list.

I believe with the above additions/subtractions, this team should be a playoff team (depending on how well Bedard does in year 1)

Yes you guys win the Lottery it accelerates your “retool” but your still 6-10 solid moves and 2-3 years from cup contention, And I feel Karlsson will only waive for a team in the cup window now! But you never know I guess.

I completely disagree with 6-10 moves away. Many of our young players made huge strides this year. And with a healthy Coots back, we can easily be in the conversation.

For playoffs yes, but not Cup window.
you guys have the pieces and the draft capitol to make some drastic moves to excelerate your retool but don’t make the same mistakes dozens of teams before you have! Rushing things usually winds up backfiring. GM has to know where to push and where to be patient or you wind up back in a rebuild before you ever get into a cup window.

by the end of Karlsson's deal, we'd be in the window.

That Karlsson trade would be way riskier than I'd be willing to do.
