I mean....how many guys traded?

No serious long-term UFA signings.

Completely untested G's.

Just....no one can believe this season was meant to be anything but a low finish.
Quite a few posters on here thought this team wasn't going to be bad enough to draft bottom 10 before the season started. I remember having this debate here.

Maybe you thought before the season that we were tanking. That doesn't mean Conroy's plan was for us to tank. Yes we traded vets. But we only traded some vets on expiring contracts, and the ones we still have are too good for us to outtank the Chicagos and San Joses, and they weren't traded.

I think we're outperforming some expectations, sure. But nothing conroy has done or tried to do suggest he wasn't trying to be competitive. He just didn't mortgage the future to do so.
