I have no problem with Conroy's two trades so far. Before the trade, I was hoping for a 2nd, but realistically it seems like trade values across the league have dropped due to every team being cap strapped. The 3rd in 2026 is sort of frustrating because of impatience.
I see many comments comparing the returns for Toffoli and Zad against what we will get in the future for our most valuable UFAs. I think many people need to lower their expectations based on trade returns seen across the league. We should expect at least 6 more draft picks for Lindholm/Hanifin/Tanev and with our draft record and the players in the pipeline there is actually some hope for a quicker turnaround then most would have guessed at the start of this year.
