The rebuild they began in S2 appears to be about where it started, and I just can't say I have a lot of faith here...or any.  One playoff appearance in 10 seasons, all with the same GM, pretty much tells you what to expect.

Constant rebuild mode? You sir are an idiot, and clearly know nothing of San Jose's history.

Season 4 - 9-5 Record, TIED with OCO for 2nd, lost out on tiebreakers to make the playoffs.

Season 5 - 8-6 Record, TIED WITH Arizona for 2nd, lost out on tiebreakers to make the playoffs.

Season 6 - 11-3 Tied for first on records with Arizona, Lost on a last second play to OCO in the playoffs.

Season 7 - 5-9 TIED with Arizona for 2nd, lost out on tiebreakers to make the playoffs.

San Jose almost made the playoffs, AFTER trading away both Sharpei and Miller in season 7. That was when CK and I decided (then I stepped down as CO) that it was time to trade away the older pieces and start to rebuild. Bayley was then traded the next season.

Yeah, You right, San Jose has been to the playoffs only once. I don't discredit you there, but to say in a state of constant rebuild? You are completely wrong. IIRC @timeconsumer even said himself when he started simming that season 5/6 San Jose was a scary good team.

Go look back at the team's records, Season 4, 9-5 3rd best in the league behind Arizona and Orange County. Season 5, tied with Arizona, Philly, and Baltimore.

So do a little history, before you just spurt out dumb responses like a "constant state of rebuild" etc.
