the 2 posts above your post have links to 2 separate sources showing he was given a qualifying offer. What deal he signed is irrelevant, he received a qualifying offer, thus the Flames maintain his rights until he signs or for 2 years, whatever comes first.
He would be allowed to sign an AHL deal with any AHL club though.
