I remember a story Conroy told at a STH event where Burke asked him to handle the negotiations with Hathaway's agent.

Conroy told Burke and Burke said to tell the agent to hurry up and sign one of those NHL offers because he sure wasn't getting one from the Flames. Conroy did and the agent agreed to take the AHL deal.
Yeah I was confused for a sec because CF showed his first NHL deal under Treliving.
