It's not like every GM in the league doesn't know the Flames situation and player agents are not out there doing everything they can to get their clients moved. Conroy is not hoodwinking anyone.
There are still multiple buyers, so with the amount of calls Conroy has likely received he is just likely fielding offers and waiting to bite on one that is actually going to offer something. In the offseason, everyone's hands were tied and didn't want to give up much for Toffoli. Well, now that we have the season played out so far, we can tell which teams have a better chance of making the playoffs and some (like us) who likely won't. I don't think Conroy has to be in a rush, as long as these guys are traded before the trade deadline.
