Regarding Conroy's contract, maybe it is another Treliving situation and he is the one waiting to see.

It was reported that Flames ownership offered Sutter and Treliving extensions at the same. Sutter took his, and Treliving did not. Maybe Conroy was offered and extension and is sitting on it.

We can also get into why the owner was the one extending the coach in the first place, and that the lack of autonomy justified Treliving's decision. It was also rumoured that he was eyeing the expected Toronto vacancy at the time, but it wouldn't be shocking if the Sutter thing is what pushed him across the line.

Letting Treliving run the show while he already had his foot out the door was another bad management decision, but I digress. You could probably write a book about all the bad decisions this franchise has made over the years.
