I would rather just gamble on the Tampa 26th pick unconditional.
Oh well, I liked all the other trades Conroy has made. This one on the surface looks like a stinker, however. It really seems like Hanifin and Brisson basically twisted Conroy's arm. I guess in light of the (possible) background shenanigans, better than nothing.
A conditional pick based on if they decide to trade it elsewhere? And top 10 protected? A 26 year old 'prospect'? Conditional 3rd (turns into a second if they win a round) definitely makes it a bit more palatable, but this is really bending over for Vegas right now. It seems as if Calgary is doing its' best to help Vegas.
