There are a lot of guys that are elite around the league that weren’t drafted at the top of the draft. Sure you need to get lucky and hit on a few of them, but it happens all the time. Datsuyk anyone? Kucherov? Pasta was 25th. Johnny is closer to home, wolf was a 7th rounder. Sure it’s easy to say “draft first overall and you get your franchise piece, but for every mcdavid there is a team picking yakapov or Daigle.
So how about some posters (cough cough) give the whole tank thing a rest, put some trust in the man who has honestly been running a pretty good organization the last few years. All the crap about too that Conroy was saved from himself by the players is asinine as well. He didn’t sign anyone that people keep talking about, because he wouldn’t overpay. That’s not the players saving him from himsef.
This is starting to turn into a cesspool in here, with a few people leading the way. Aren’t we supposed to cheer for our team, and hope they do well? Never understood when a real fan would want their team to suck for an extended period of time.
There’s more than one way to build a winner, let conny cook
