I have a feeling Flames could have found a similar route if they wanted to.

You beat me to the punch, I was just about to post something similar about the BJs tolling Texier's contract. This contract negotiation wouldn't even be happening if Treliving didn't go above and beyond with handling Kylington's situation. Kylington's camp does owe the Flames some goodwill and gratitude for that.
Given all of the time off and where he slots into the lineup (#4 on the Flames and #5 on a good team), the going rate seems to be in the $2.5-3.5M range. I wouldn't be surprised if Conroy is targeting a contract similar to Jalen Chatfield's recent extension...somewhere around $3Mx2 or $3Mx3.
