For those that said the CBA is confusing... I honestly don't see what is confusing or ambiguous
I only found the 2005 CBA
13.23 In the event a professional or former professional Player plays in a league outside
North America after the start of the NHL Regular Season, other than on Loan from his
Club, he may thereafter play in the NHL during that Playing Season (including Playoffs)
only if he has first either cleared or been obtained via Waivers. For the balance of the
Playing Season, any such Player who has been obtained via Waivers may be Traded or
Loaned only after again clearing Waivers or through Waiver claim.
Now does anyone have a link to the new CBA because I don't understand how this is confusing or ambiguous

You act like there has never been ambiguous wording in a contract before. There are specific doctrines in court that deal with things like this in the public.
I don't know how the case of interpretation of ambiguous wording in the NHL would have gone if the Avs did not match, but I think the Flames could make a fair case in their favour.
