His cap hit is irrelevant (the Flames will be more worried about the floor this year), so I would play him through this year and into next. Right now, he isn't going to return a ton - either he gets going, and increases his value, or the Flames can move him next year, or re-sign him cheaper.

I don't think it's giving up. I think Conroy would like to try a trade to see if it shakes up the team. And he doesn't want to give up any of the pieces likely to return meaningful futures (Kadri, Rasmus, Coleman).
The list of players that would return anything of value in that scenario is extremely short.
