Hopefully Conroy is someone who's willing to go that route with players like Wolf, Coronato, Pelletier and Honzek should they start to break out. Was never a fan of how Treliving did business with our own homegrown players by kicking the can down the road far too often.
Worst case they heavily underperform the contract.

It’s not like young defencemen are automatic wins. Put guys like Jones or Nurse on their big contracts 6 years earlier than they got them and they would’ve brutally underperformed it the entire way through… which they’re probably going to do anyway.
