Huska as coach? Savard? Other players wanting out he wasn’t aware of before? Or not signing players he thought they were?

Not a great feeling about that in general.
What made him do a 180 was term. As in he wanted a long term deal and the Flames were not interested in that. If Tyler Toffoli would have been ok with a 3 year extension he would still be here. The same people bitching about this trade would have been even bitchier if Conroy has given Toffoli a 6 year extension.
