Promoting Pridham to prevent him being poached is possible. I could see Carolina doing the same with Tulsky.
I wonder if Mark Hunter would consider the Leafs or if he's still annoyed at getting passed over for Dubas?
I also wonder if the Flames hire Conroy, would Pascall start looking for greener pastures? Toronto would be easier travel for Cassie and her tv commitments.

Good points. Hunter would probably take the role as he's familiar with the team. He landed on his feet and am sure he wouldn't hold it against anyone. In fact if Shanahan were to get the boot if he took GM he could get the next move up later, so it only benefits him, not to mention some young guys on the team he has some assets to work with. I can't see Shanahan taking the time again with another unproven guy (Pridham). It seems like too much of a sell to the board.
As for Conroy, I wasn't too keen on him a few days ago, but I hope they make a decision on him quickly. GM spots will open and if teams hire him we're screwed.
