Conny is doing a great job . He's making smart decisions and not handing out huge long term contracts without any assurance it will work . He knows this team may not be the contender right off the bat that everyone hopes for but he has done a lot of planning towards the future . After the last couple of GMs that would try to make big blockbuster deals , it's nice to see this one realizing he doesn't need to .
Conroy doesn't dodge any question bottom line and answers with a smile on his face. You already feel like he's going to be one of the best GMs in Flame's history and he just started.
Resigning Shark was a definite must for us. Amazing job Conny after these past three seasons of constantly losing really good players having little to nobody leaving in free agency was refreshing.
GREAT JOB CRAIG!!!!!! Haven't been this excited for a Flames team since back to 2004 but better the 80s. I love your plan for the growth of your team. Great to resign Lomberg, he'll be great for Martin Pospisil. Save the cap space so as time goes by we can resign all this new and young talent to extensions. Only way to grow the team to get better and be contenders as time goes bye. I think that's the way the NHL is these days. Get them young and keep them around.
I can't say 2004 since I was only 4, but for my time as a Flames fan, i haven't been this excited since we beat Vancouver in the 1st round in 2014-15 back with Rookie Gaudreau and sophomore Monahan.
I think the $$$ was agreed to? From the Rumors I heard, it was term. Calgary originally wanted a 2-3 year deal Max. I think he was looking for 4-5 years.
Personally I think Kylington should consider being a little flexible considering how supportive the flames organisation was to him over the last few years. If he turns down a deal over a year or two difference in term it feels like a slap in the face. Oh well, it’s his career he can do what he likes.
Great job this week Craig!! You the scouting staff, all involved excellent job... The only move I dislike is Mantha but it's one year so atleast you didn't pull a James Neal or Troy Brouwer contract.. I love the Sharangovich deal whatta diamond he is and I'm happy to have him through the rebuild.. Popisil at center would be Amazing!! I hope Poirier and Klapka can make the move up at some point and Honzek bounces back from his injuries.. Keep up the great work and we can keep building towards 2025 and 2026 drafts build the monster!! Bring the cup back home !! Connie and Iggy get there redemption!! Let's go !!
Best GM. Very open and good communication. He even said... it does not make sense giving a player a long term signing, if he is not a good fit. (Treliving was horrible at this). He also said that it does not make sense to let players walk fir nothing. (Again Treliving was horrible fir this). Conroy is best GM. Be patient Calgary we are ReBui....I mean ReTooling 😊
I Like That Conny Is Doing Shorter Terms & Expecting Accountability! If You Play Well & Fit In We'll Extend You But Not For Crazy Long Term Deals Like Huberdeau's, Speaking Of Accountability!
I understand your concerns, but the odds are higher a plan of keeping guys like Markstrom, Mangiapane, Tanev, Hanifin, and Lindholm would backfire with much more severity. This is the way to go 👍
Trying to maintain a competitive roster from year to year led to years of middling mediocrity and horrid contracts. A rebuild cant really backfire any worse than what has been happening for the past decade with this team.
@@Marvio12yeah we had them for so long & the wheels were starting to tread backwards with their age. It’s good to make these moves & get ready for the next few years.
Love it, now let's offer sheet broberg and lundel. The seconds we pay for high ceiling dudes in their early 20's would be worth if we can get one of them
@@codyharder571THE IGINLA NAME DOES NOT BELONG ON THE BACK OF ANY OTHER JERSEY THAN A FLAMES JERSEY. GET THIS THROUGH YOUR HEAD. IT IS A DISGRACE TO THE IGINLA NAME AND TO THE IGINLA LEGACY.
Carter hart will likely never play again. Bit of a legal deal with another flame "Dube" and a few other players around the league. Maybe they sort it out down the road but no team would touch any of them now.
