Not entirely I don't think. In regards to Conroy having the same marching orders.
From what has been said by Conroy his vision that got him the job was to build through the draft. That's going to take some time. What I think he sold them is having a challenging team in time for the new arena.

Which lines up for a retool starting right now.

I also believe that what the owners wanted died when Gaudreau walked for nothing. And the Tkachuk trade was the last ditch attempt to get somewhere with what they currently have.

And if it's true that Lindholm wants put regardless of what the Flames do, then the organization really has no choice but really rely on build through the draft.
