They had his RFA rights. However, when the Avs matched the offer sheet, he ceased to be an RFA in the exact same way he would have ceased to be an RFA for the Flames (should you chose that interpretation). If the NHL is going to take that position, they should now apply it to the Avs.
Daly is acting totally inappropriately in making statements to the press about an unresolved legal issue. Flames management should consider a law suit. Daly is no way the be all and end all in interpreting this document. He's one of several parties invovled. He has no more authority to interpret the document than Feaster does.
