I'm pulling for Conroy but the organizational mandate provides him pretty well zero margins for error as he has to draft better than the rest of the league and win blockbuster trades for this to work out the way they want. I would love it if they could pull it off but it's not very realistic at all.
That’s most Canadian teams.

Sometimes they don’t wait that extra year, and push in and every year it’s something new.

Look st the leafs as a recent hilarious example. Instead of being patient they see a shiny new toy in Tavares give him a bunch of money and trade Kadri and he helps Colorado win the cup.

Now every year they are trying to find the missing pieces. Now they have Bertuzzi and Domi and a bunch who tf are they playing on defence.
