Conroy didn't get a massive return, but other than the Canucks he makes an early move. Canucks are pretty bad since the Hughes trade and all but locked up a top 3 pick in the draft.
Flames are next to make a big move, need to secure a top 4 pick.
Ras out now vs teams like St Louis still having their full roster is great for the Flames. 2nd in 28 or a 1st in 28 is so overblown vs getting a guy like Stenberg or McKenna. Staying at the top of the draft is the real gain for this franchise.
