I'm happy with the trade, and I trust both Dallas' scouting and our department, both of which obviously liked the guy.
More importantly though, I really like how Conroy is viewing the construction of the team. Targeting a lower-profile defensive dman that isn't flashy on paper, but fills a considerable organizational need shows he knows the elements a team needs to be successful, and he will look to fill all those roles effectively. This trade has increased my confidence in Conroy and the direction he wants to take the team.
