I love the direction and the assets we've received for the trades so far by Conroy. I think he's sufficiently stocked the cupboards with D depth, and the vast amount of 2nds and 3rds are going to help with more shots at good players elsewhere. But getting the elite top end talent is going to be hard if we don't ever finish in the bottom 10. That would be my only concern with this rebuild. How are we going to acquire that elite talent that you can't sign or trade for, that you need to draft yourself, and do it without top 10 picks. We can pray for more Gaudreau style home runs in later rounds but it's hard to rely on chance like that.
