So basically what happened was Conroy always had the job. But giving it to him right away would have looked bad, like they settled for the 2nd in command instead of searching. So they leaked that they were interviewing problematic/garbage GMs like Bergevin and Bowman, who isn’t even eligible to hold an NHL job right now in all likelihood. Then, surprise, Conroy looks good when compared to those guys, and it doesn’t look like cronyism when he wins.

But whatever, Conroy is very well liked here. Mostly the Treliving drama showed that owner Edwards is extremely involved in day to day stuff, which is horrible.


Can't wait for Nonis to advise Conroy to draft Patrick white type of tier with their 1st round draft pick

I mean, Conroy a first time GM, I personally wouldn't call it that. Old boys club to me is recycling the same coaches/gms that have held jobs across half the league, most without any major success.


This is exactly what a old boys club is. You can be in denial, that's fine. Edm had one for yearssss

I see what you're sayin. There aren't young Dubas like GMs growing on trees. Chayka was a disaster. Dubas for all the good he's done, has no success to show for it. I'm fine with Conroy. True Calgary guy, first time GM.

Sounds like the new coach will be inhouse as well, either the current assistant or the current AHL coach.
