And I'm not sure why Kuzmenko would want to resign after next season?
Jurmo has to be resigned this June, and if he makes the NHL is expected to be a 5/6 depth type player
Like the 1st, the 4th rounder will be picked later in the round.
Bruzustewicz might turn out to be a NHL player.
What the Canucks didn't give up was any of their prized prospects or young roster players which I assume is what Conroy was seeking.
The first was always on the table and the number of other lessor assets Conroy picked up suggests that he couldn't get quality so he went with quantity.

These are all things the Flames traded for, yes. What did you expect an underperforming UFA with a history of good play to get?
Conroy did supremely well here. So did Allvin. This is what you call "A good trade"
