Flames' GM Opens Up on Zadorov's Trade Request
During an interview, Conroy discussed his interactions with Zadorov.
Craig Conroy's first comments on Nikita Zadorov's trade request:
"We've had conversations. We have a good relationship, we really do. We get along well. I'm going to keep that between him and me, but we talk. He's been a pro about everything and he's played well."
Is there any rush to trade him?
"It's just like any other person, we're just going to do what's best for the Calgary Flames, and on our timeline."
The Flames players don't seem to be too fazed about the situation. They are focused on winning games and getting back on the right track after a slow start.
Flames Taking Their Time with Decision on Zadorov
Zadorov's request doesn't necessarily mean it's going to happen anytime soon.
Conroy's comments point to a respectful relationship between the GM and the player, suggesting that Zadorov's wishes may be honored in due course.
The timing of any potential trade could depend on the Flames' performance and playoff position later in the season.
Currently, the team is still in contention, and having Zadorov in their lineup could be crucial to their chances.
Would you trade Zadorov now if you were the Flames' GM or wait until closer to the trade deadline.
