Conway spent 2014-15 in Toledo with the Walleye, compiling an 11-4-4 record, along with a 2.09 goals-against average, and a .928 save percentage. He backstopped the Walleye to three shutouts last season, which is the second most in team history for a single season, and helped Toledo to Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals with a 4-1-1 playoff record, while posting a 3.21 GAA, and a .905 SV% in six games played.
