Conroy is taking on guys that other teams have given up on with assets. That is a sign of a great GM. Takes heat early on in trades, then time goes on and when you look back it doesn't makes sense how he got that return.
I still can not figure out what the Devils didn't like about Sharangovich? Guy is a stud in all 3 situations. He's 2nd in SHP in the NHL, he's capable of 1dt PP time too. How can you not fit this guy in?

I'd say he got in on Hanifin and Lindholm before they hit a big improvement. Granted, he paid with Hamilton (who he also got at a decent price IMO).
Toffoli also (surprisingly) took a big step after coming to Calgary.
But he did buy high on Kadri, Huberdeau, and all the utter flops.
