Well, if it wasn’t obvious with Nino Neiderreiter’s trade over the weekend...things sort of exploded on Sunday. It’s rebuild season. This is what Nashville has needed for about two or three seasons now, and it’s worth me writing out some thoughts about what a rebuild looks like for this beloved squad.
What is a rebuild? In my opinion, it’s rebuilding a team around a certain core of players in order to become competitive. The core for this team will be Roman Josi, Filip Forsberg, and Juuse Saros. Even though Saros doesn’t have trade protection, it’d be unwise to trade Saros unless the return is absolutely incredible.
