The chance to get a top tier HC has come and gone

Absolutely. My post wasn’t meant as a slight to the city, the team, or anything else. Just how I see it.
No slight taken. Its hard to say exactly where we are relative to where we are going. This next coach might be the one to take us to the promise land or he might just be the coach that starts the rebuilding process over the next few years and then hands off to the coach that takes us home. As a long time fan I am sure you imagine multiple possibilities.
