This philosophy of bringing in overpaid over the hill vets has to stop. Unload these geezers for draft picks and prospects and we can start over. And put Vigneualt out of his misery already.

They're known sellers heading into the trade deadline. They haven't brought in over-the-hill players in years. This isn't the late 90's.
St. Louis was probably the one guy they brought in who was at the end of his career but they also had a younger team and could use an older playoff experienced veteren at the time and he also helped them to a Cup Final and was having a great season heading into the trade.
They moved Stepan for a pick, moved Brassard for a younger, better version in Mika, signed Shattenkirk who was the premiere D-men in free agency, signed a young Brendan Smith but he's gone backwards. Miller, Buchnevich, Vesey, Hayes, Kreider...they aren't old.
Lundqvist is at the tail end of his career, we have Shestyorkin to take over for him yearafter next, Nash is being moved soon and he's 33. Other than him, everyone else on the roster of consequence is under 30 except Zucc whois 30 and 30 isn't "old," per se, although I think he's lost a step. Old isn't an issue. Its injuries, puck possession players and zero team cohesion on defense.
