Here are the Flames announcing last year they gave Eric Roy a bonafide offer retain his rights(?).

Subject to the provisions of subsection (iii) below and Sections (b), (c) and
(d) below, if, on or before June 1 of the calendar year next succeeding the
Entry Draft, the claiming Club makes a Bona Fide Offer (as defined
below) to its claimed Player of an SPC, the Club shall retain the exclusive
right of negotiation for the services of such Player up to and including the
second June 1 following the date of his selection.

Sections (b) is for players who leave major junior before the age of 20. Section (c) is for college players, and Section (d) is for players from outside North America. Subsection (iii) is for drafted 22 year olds.
So yes if Eric Roy was a 1st round pick of the Flames, they wouldn't have received a compensatory pick if they didn't make a bona fide offer last June.
