Conroy is a UFA ( I think) at the end of this season.  So I'd be surprised if Mucks does anything more than perhaps Schubert.  Tossing is a future pick and Bingo player would be too much for someone that could very well walk next summer.

Ignoring for a second the myriad potential downsides, the single greatest benefit to acquiring Conroy is that it will allow Murray to re-establish the 4th line. This was a true 4-line team last year, and it made all the difference.

Eaves-Spezza-Heatley
McAmmond-Conroy-Alfredsson
Schaeffer-Fisher-Neil
Vermette-Kelly-McGrattan

Hamel gets the shaft 45-55% of the time.

Vermette will be bummed out about being back on the so-called 4th, but he and Kelly were such an important skating/checking tandem last year that, in addition to being the primary pk forwards, they were playing a near-regular shift at even strength. Having our dangerous 4th line back will be the biggest, and probably least heralded, reason for the team's turnaround--if and when that happens.

Good Call

I think Conroy would be a decent pickup.  I think back to the year that Iginla tore it up, it was with Conroy and McCammond on his line.  Could work wonders for Alfie.

And the four lines would be good.


Does something happen tonight if the boys don't win?

Conroy has another year after this on his contract, so we'd have him next season too.

Conroy would atl least bring some experience into the room.  Price can't be too high though.

Hopefully it's still the Schubert deal, and not Volchenkov.

Plus, you know, it's Eklund...

So in other words, it's guaranteed NOT to happen...
