The 39-year-old veteran NHL forward told a news conference today he is retiring to become a special assistant to acting GM Jay Feaster.
The entire Flames team attended his announcement.
Conroy was waived by Calgary late last month after being made a healthy scratch for 16 straight games.
In 1,009 career NHL games, Conroy had 182 goals with 360 assists.
