Is Wang Finally Starting To Get It?

In a recent article in the New York Times, Charles Wang talked about a variety of topics including the Islanders impending move to Brooklyn.

One thing that really stood out for me was that he said that he realized that star power would be needed in order to compete with the Rangers.

The same owner who for the last half dozen years has ran the team below the cap floor going as far as to acquire phantom salaries so they weren't penalized made mention of star power being needed for the team.

So, is Wang finally starting to get it?  Is he finally starting to realize that you can't build a team off draft picks and projects that you hope pan out.  For the sake of the fans, hopefully!
