I'd say that any of us who believe that this Flames organization needs to be built from the ground up through the draft should be happy with the return. It's future-oriented, and gives Conroy the ability to do exactly what is needed for this market.
Draft. Develop. Prosper.
There are no shortcuts to success in the NHL (...unless you're one of the top-5 markets in the league). Drafting and developing your own players is the hard work required to build a contender.
