It's more of a security blanket for the player. If the team doesn't want you and is shopping you, you usually don't want to insist on staying. Especially not in the case of Sarich/Babchuk who can't get in the lineup.

Maybe in the case of Sarich, probably not in the case of Babchuk.
But isn't the NTC/NMC the story of Feaster's tenure thus far? Needing to overpay just a little bit... was Babchuk in such high demand that he needed a NTC/NMC to sign? Did Feaster think Babchuk was in high demand or something? (maybe with the "50 points" prediction who knows)
