The Flames have shown no qualms over burning an ELC year. Mony forced their hand, then both Gaudreau & Bennett in separate years. The money isn't an issue with some smart cap management, which Treliving so far has shown, and burning a year doesn't take the player any closer to free agency - which is when they really gotta back the truck up.
