Conroy did a great job stocking up the pipeline on the blueline with all the prospects in trade + the past draft with Parekh and Mews + guys we already had, our wing depth is also very good (we have to many decent wingers at the NHL level and the pipeline is pretty good)... but our C depth in terms of both the NHL level and the prospect pool is the dogs breakfast. We have a glaring need to get an elite skilled center into the System and this could be our only/best opportunity to do so. If you're wondering why I saw only/best it's because I'm a big believer in Dustin Wolf... all he's done every step of the way to the NHL is put up video game numbers, collect trophies, and be a beast in net... once he's a fully formed NHL'er I expect he'll do the same which is a great thing for us to have but that still leaves us short on a essential ingrediant for a Championship calibre team (The elite C) without a realistic means of acquiring it because those guys aren't often available outside the top of the draft.

Okay. I guess Conroy sends a memo to Huska saying don’t forget to tell the players to lose all their games. It’s for the future.
