Conroy has to think...he's a General Manager, he's got a responsibility - if you have a #1 centre, you don't try and sign an extension for a few days and call it quits (by delaying) - you get your ass back out there and you sign that !@#$ing extension.

...or you trade him at the safer of the two pinch points in the trade market, the NHL draft.



There are largely two trading seasons in the NHL, I think he should make use of the first one available if there's no extension.
Subtle Billy Madison reference. Well done.
