Conroy stated after trading Zad that he was happy he didn’t have to retain because that’s a valuable approach around the deadline. Teams like to maximize their deadline cap as much as possible and the flames still have 3 contracts they could retain on to maximize those returns. I fully believe Conroy will retain on at least 1 if not 2 contracts and if he ended up using the 3 allowed retention slots I wouldn’t be shocked.
