Look at the roster and consider what it's going to look like without Tanev, Hanafin, and Lindholm. This team is heading to for a term of multiple seasons at the bottom of the NHL standings and there's not a lot that Conroy can do about it. You can't be retooling when you have one of the worst rosters in the NHL. It's going to be a rebuild whether the organization likes it or not.
