Taking over as Flames GM after a season of underperformance, Conroy has a lot on his plate in his first year.
His club has three good goaltenders, three key pending unrestricted free agents who remain unsigned and an aging team that failed to make the playoffs — largely because of lacklustre performance in overtime contests.
And I said, “You know what? I think he’s played centre, but not in a while. Let’s put him on wing where he’ll be more comfortable to start.” It’s definitely intriguing that they might try him there, and if they do try him there, I’ll be curious to see how he does. A guy like Pelletier, though, he’s done a really good job. We really believe that he’s going to be on the team, and in my mind, he’d have to have a really poor camp not to be.
You talk to the older guys after the season, and one thing they mentioned was the excitement that a young guy like Pelletier brought. It was close last year, but there were a lot of games and a lot of times where we faltered and didn’t get it done. You talk to a lot of guys and to a man, none of them would say “I had a good season.” All of them were disappointed. All of them put a lot of pressure on themselves and took a lot of blame.
