I don't know, they've done okay with the picks they've managed to get in recent years. Horvat should be a slam dunk and if they trade him they should probably just fold the franchise, McCann was also "safe" but a good pick, Shinkaruk will be good, Virtanen has talent...they just have to stop trading them all, fuck's sake. Horvat/McCann/Shinkaruk/Virtanen is a good little prospect pool of forwards. Add some defense to that and luck into a high pick or two and bam, the rebuild is underway. Use later picks to try and find more "safe" picks to fill out the roster. This is what every other team does.
Two of them are gone for crap. Horvat will have to deal with "foundational piece" Sutter in his way for the next several years. It's like they want to play a different game than everyone else and make it harder for themselves.

They definitely need new management.
