We were all confused about his $1M salary this year with the $2.5M signing bonus and salary ramping up next year. How is no one considering that part of the agreement with ROR was that he stayed in the A this year and played up next year? (And sorry if I missed someone else bringing this up)
Seems pretty likely. A $1M salary (he won't receive anyway) has a low cap impact for the team, and the $2.5M compensates what he would have made this year playing for the Flames if there wasn't this waivers issue.
IMO, Feaster knew all about it, and ROR was perfectly happy to skip this season and join the Flames next season.

Bob McK already commented that teams are not allowed to offer sheet a player, then not put him on the roster.
If Colorado hadn't matched, ROR was going on waivers. Nothing Feaster could do about it.
