Connolly is a young scoring RW who can be had for a 2nd round pick. If Burke lets his misguided morals get in the way of building a better team I will be very disappointed. Connolly addresses an organizational need and a 3 year deal is perfectly fine for a team that will not be in cap trouble in the next 3 years.
