We've be furious at Conroy if we were in NJ's position and gave up Mercer +++ for Markstrom. We will probably revisit in the summer.

How is he “selling the farm to save your job or make the playoffs for one season” in February but not doing the exact same thing if he tries to acquire the same player in July?
All he’s doing is getting one less playoff run out of Markstrom. Instead of 3, it’s 2. And the Flames have zero reason to reduce the price. Especially if Markstrom ends up as a Vezina finalist.
