The best part is we’ve acquired all this draft capital and have some really nice pieces to do it again next year!
Conroy confirmed they had more offers that were pick based for both Coleman and Whitecloud but wanted to keep both as leaders who want to be part of the rebuild. Makes perfect sense as there’s no rush to trade either of these guys.

Happy to see Coleman and Whitecloud staying. You want to have players that want to be here. Plus we need some veteran leadership to help develop our prospects and younger players.
