There have been mixed reaction from the Flames fanbase regarding the return, some disappointed and some glad that Craig Conroy was able get in return Miromanov, a 1st round pick - which will remain intact even though it has conditions on the year, and a 3rd round pick - which will become a 2nd if Vegas Golden Knights win at least one round of the playoffs. It will be interesting to see what Miromanov can bring to the table and offer to the team.
