Earlier in the process(tm) I thought there should be an urgency for the Flames to make a deal. Because in the summer, more options would open up for NJ.
As we get more tidbits of information it sounds like Markstrom is who they want. It doesn't help their cause that Saros is going to cost more in the summer. Much more than a Markstrom with some of his salary being paid by Calgary. But even still, Markstrom is their man.
So that makes it pretty easy for Conroy in my opinion. This is the price, you can either pay it now, or pay it in the summer. Up to you. This is the price.
If that's a problem, good luck finding another top 5 goalie in tbe league for 4 million bucks for 2 more years.
Aside from the personal implications with Markstrom, Conroy is and should be in full control.
