There is absolutely a different direction under Conroy vs Treliving where younger players are getting more of a chance and pending free agents are being turned into picks and prospects.
The article on SN today about the Flames and Canucks being at the bottom with the Preda. That article points out the Preds and Canucks have told the rest of the league they are open for business but the Flames have not.
Do the Flames lean into the bad year and trade their 34-35 year old veterans or does their 2-9-2 start that is slowly being erased by a 9-6-2 run lead them out of the top 5 picks to somewhere in the 6-16 range?
I am looking forward to finding out

Not directed at you but I am so sick of this crap lol...what trades have those teams made? Its totally irrelevant...teams know Ras is available they had him traded in the summer FFS but he wouldn't sign the extension. Nashville and Vancouver just look desperate to make a move and will do something stupid as usual. Vancouver traded a first like 7 months ago and are now last overall.
