I don't know if disconnect it the right word. Conroy said what he would have liked to have seen, but also understands why Sutter organized things the way he did.

There is no doubt in my mind that management let Sutter pick the players he wanted for the team, so not really a disconnect. I see disconnects more when GMs force players onto the roster despite what the coach wants.

I personally would have liked to have seen at least one more rookie on the team. I think it's important for player development to have a couple each year that get to sink or swim and I think there are a few that can play in the NHL, even if on the 4th line.
