So the only viable reason i can see for no extension yet is that Jarome actually isn't sure he wants to remain here.
I'd say he's gone for sure next year. The only question now is whether he leaves as a UFA or is traded. If the Flames are a bubble team or worse at the deadline, he's gone in a trade. if the Flames are comfortably in the top 8 at the deadline he stays for the rest of this year.
Jarome wants to win a Cup, he won't stay here. Thats why there is no contract.

They aren't allowed to speak to him until the CBA is ratified by both parties.
