The Athletic has lost some credibility with me.

In the above article they predict that the Kings’ top line will be Buster PLD Kempe.
If Buster is still here in 5 years, then Blake has been on the job too long.

In all fairness, Kempe is what 26-27? His contract goes another 2-3 years. I'd actually bet he may not be here vs Buster who is 21. Buster needs to show he belongs, and that's on him but age is definitely on his side - he just needs to show he is part of the long term solution.
