Show Notes
Craig Conroy, the new general manager of the Calgary Flames, has continued the use of conditional draft picks, acquiring four in recent trades. The most notable is a top ten protected 2027 first-round pick from Vegas in the Rasmus Andersson trade, with additional conditions tied to the Stanley Cup and future performance. Colorados 2027 second-round pick and 2028 first-round pick, originally from Minnesota, also have top ten protections. While some fans and analysts may prefer simpler trades, these conditions offer potential upside without immediate value loss. Conroys deals appear less complex than those under his predecessor, and their outcomes will be revealed as the lottery and playoffs progress.
