Three cups in six years was a pretty good run. I wonder what the differential for good vs bad seasons typical fans are willing to endure.
I think they're going to be bad for a looooooonnnnnggggg time. No guarantee they're going to rebuild their team thru the draft. They've wasted a lot of time not sticking to a defined plan the last 4 or 5 years.

50 cupless years for 1 cup year seemed worth it. Hoping that ratio shrinks a bit though
Just a Russian propaganda account

Yeah it's gonna take some time but they really are in full rebuild mode now. Stan Bowman rode on the success of Dale Tallon and his family name until it was impossible to hide it anymore.

Fuck Chicago.

The new GM has said they're in a 5 year rebuild. They're transparently trying to bottom out for a loaded 2023 draft. Like you said, no guarantee it works out. They already seem to have screwed up their most recent top 3 pick in Kirby Dach.
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!

Not sure I like that deal for Colorado, which is to say I like that deal for the Blues. Supposedly the Blues were still working on Leddy as recently as this morning.
If the Blues get Leddy signed, I would assume Scandella gets moved. That would give Army some cap to work with.

We're gonna add a Dman. Is it gonna be a FA or a trade?
