If the Devils wanted to do this deal now, as opposed to 13 days from now, IMO they should’ve paid a further premium.
What? This is very narrative driven. You walked yourself into the conclusion you clearly wanted to get to - That Conroy didn't get enough because he didn't wait long enough.

That's balderdash, you have no idea where anything was at with any GM in the league or what was talked about, or who was in or out.
