A kid that is a year or two older probably makes Conroy happy as he gets someone that maybe cracks our lineup or is at least further along in their development.

Yeah, I think if there's an notion or assumption that the Flames are going to be tanking the next year or two with the movement of these UFAs this year, they're misguided. As much as the Flames and Conroy can, they'll be getting NHL or near NHL ready players for some of these assets in this offseason, as opposed to some magic beans to plan in soil for the next 2-3 years.
