Conroy has 5 forwards that will be UFAs at the end of next season (Hunt (28), Kuzmenko (28), Mangiapane (27), Rooney (30), and Sharangovich (25)).
If Craig stays on his stated course of not letting anyone walk for free, I expect that he will trade all of them, though any decent return on Hunt and Rooney would be unlikely.
He might re-sign Sharangovich as he has shown he can play at C, but he will be 29 by the time the new arena opens.
The most that I would offer him would be 4 years at $5M and even that may be a little high.
