I guess he’ll have options, but I am sad that a quick statistical rehab with the Flames where he would get top 6 minutes and PP time, didn’t appeal to him. I’m sure Flames kicked tires on this - seems like exactly the sort of deal Conroy is looking for.
Get a viable NHLer on a short contract, and get some inducement(s) in excahnge for taking the player and helping the other team get out of the contract. Then deal that player at the TDL to a contender so that they get playoff hockey. Everyone wins!
