Also, Gross was Conroy’s agent, they probably have a good relationship.

Good point regarding Conroy. Gaudreau held out into camp and signed the day before the season started and 6 years later he bailed on the very last minute. Nylander held out until the very last minute before burning an entire season on a holdout at the beginning of this deal. This is how Gross operates with his premier clients it would seem
