Not a home run, but not terrible at all.

My expectations of the Flames rebuild << The actual Flames rebuild.
Couldn't be happier with Conroy and the job he's done, punctuated by this deal.
Go Flames go. It's gonna sting for a couple years but, boy oh boy, we're in for a wave of young talent the next few years!

And just like that, Conroy planted and grew a Shiney new baby trade tree.
Look at all those little branches .

Sometimes those conditions work upwards. Like the Vegas 2nd turns into a first if they win the cup (not gonna happen but whatevs).

I was pissed when we paid a 1st to get Monahan off our books and sign Kadri to a huge retirement contract. To get a 1st and a 2nd for him a few years later is absolutely a home run for me.

Chef's kiss.
Conroy now only has Huberdeau left-over from the "Summer of Brad".
2025/2026 General Manager Rating: A+.
Kept Coleman over Kadri. The absolute RIGHT move.

The 2028 first could be a good one. |
Florida has also crashed and burned quite hard from all of the extra hockey the past couple years!

I admit I didn't have Olli Matta, Ryan Strome and Victor Olofsson being acquired by the Flames on my bingo card this year.

Olofsson has bounced around, but there's still some potential there I believe.

Flames traded away another pick? A 4th, no less? Damn their eyes, why won't they rebuild!

I’m guessing the conditions on the 2028 pick are probably something that keeps the protection on the 2027 pick they sent to Toronto.
