I sure hope Conroy is a brilliant hockey mind and leads this franchise back into being a perennial competitor. I really do.

But it will only be as a result of a Maloney fluke. Sorry if I'm skeptical.
Wasn't the Coyotes' best span in their history under Maloney?
Didn't he win GM of the year in 2010? While having tight cap restrictions?

I get the skepticism in your premise, but Maloney has accomplished something.

For Nonis, I will agree, he hasn't accomplished anything at all.
