Calgary is not a desirable market for most mid 20’s players and one thing Conroy has been adamant about since taking over as GM is he wants people that want to be here and he gets a commitment from Sharangovich so to then turn around and ship him out before his new contract kicks in (to the Sabres of all teams) that sends a poor message to players that may want to or would be willing to come here. Conroy does this a couple of times then players will demand NTC’s to sign here. Optics are key. Calgary doesn’t have the luxury to be ruthless like NY or LV because those markets are in the top 5 of the league and almost every player wants to be there.
