Honestly, I don't think about it too much. It's completely out of our control, so I just go along for the ride.

I guess if I had to pick one, I would say sell and go for a top 10 pick. I'd be lying if I said that losses still didn't piss me off and that wins still feel good though. If I was paying thousands for season tickets, I'd probably just want W's.
I can’t see Conroy using that cap space unless something big pops up like an Eichel. If this was Treliving in sure the cap space would have burnt a hole in his pocket and we would be out the space and draft picks.

It also is nice to know we don’t have to worry about signing our young players coming off the ELC like Zary and Coronato. Bahl is up as well and they probably want to get Wolf done as well. Zary, Coronato and Bahl eat up what’s coming off the books and Wolf depending on how the season ends probably puts a bit of a dent on that 20M. We will also need a backup goalie.
