Currently, the Flames have been using 4 primary Centers with the following F/O stats:
Frost = 51.4%
Rooney = 48.2%
Backlund = 47.6%
Kadri = 47.1%

So far this season, Calgary has also used five Wingers as part time Centers who have all taken at least 60 Face-Offs:
Coleman (LW/RW/C) = 55.6%
Sharangovich (RW/LW/C) = 49.6%
Coronato (RW) = 45.5%
Pospisil (RW/C) = 41.2%
Zary (LW/C) = 36%

In addition to their difficulties in scoring goals, winning Face-Offs has been a big issue for the Flames this season.
I don't see any help at C in the current prospect pool, so Conroy will need to draft and trade for Centers that can win at least 50% of the face-offs in the NHL.
