I have no concerns. This is not going to be a season to remember but it's necessary as this team badly needs a top 5 talent infusion into the organization. Worse would be the team getting off to a hot start, leading to feel good signings of Lindholm, Zadorov, etc only for the team to revert to this in the middle of the season. This start has made things much easier for Conroy as well as the pending UFA's. There's zero reason Lindholm should be looking to sign here and really not a lot of reasons that Conroy should be trying to keep this group together as it's simply not a good mix of players and best course of action is just to take the lumps and start building the next core through the draft.
