For Tanev? Maybe. But even if the Flames get a 1st for Tanev (which isn’t guaranteed), the odds aren’t great that a player drafted 20th-32nd will turn out better than Macleod. Given Conroy’s declared strategy of trying to turn things around quickly, I wouldn’t hate a deal that turned a 34 year old 2nd pairing D on an expiring contract into a big, fast 25 year old two-way C on pace for 15-20 goals.
