And no one really knows that.

But it appears that Conroy has done just fine.

But saying anyone wins a rental trade? For the team acquiring the rental play, they pretty much need to win the SC for it to be a success. But that wouldn't lessen the value to the team trading the rental player.

It's all a waste of a dumb exercise.

On the other hand, if we value asset management, what happens with the rental does matter

What does Calgary have today from the Lindholm trade? Multiple assets, all of value
What does Vancouver have today? Nothing

You don’t want to call that a win, you do you
