I'm all for opportunity when a player is underutilized. So is Conroy. That's why Conroy took Sharangovich.
You don't know that Bean nixed Holtz. I suspect that Conroy was selling the team on a pick plus Mercer for Markstrom and Holtz for the retention. When retention was off the table by NJ, Conroy wanted just pick plus Mercer. NJ offered just pick plus Holtz.
Your problem is you think Markstrom is worth a second and a prospect winger. Calgary thinks Markstorm is worth a first and a prospect centre.
