So what the Flames did 2 years ago is completely irrelevant when the 2 most important guys from that team are gone. Now consider the UFAs that could leave after this year. Consider the age of their core. Consider their lack of picks and high profile prospects moving forward. Consider the money and term sunk into older players. Conroy has his work cut out for himself.
Conroy made it very clear in his presser he would deal with all with them one way or another so I'm not sure that's a negative at this point.
