Yeah, that’s the disappointing part. Bottoming out is super needed here in this and next offseason. If I were Conroy I wouldn’t put stock in Wolf either, just because you never know with goaltenders and defence how they’ll adapt. I’m of the view that you maximize your trade value with guys older, as I’m the case of Markstrom, then you sign a vet who doesn’t mind splitting time and mentoring Wolf. Then ina year or two you bulk up on d and give Wolf the support he needs to succeed with the guys directly in front of him. But keeping as asset like Markstrom to be a mentor and forego a first is crazy talk.
