This gives them the option of bringing him over for camp and giving him the chance to make the Flames, even if it's a long shot. If he didn't sign, his team in Sweden wouldn't likely release him because their season will be underway (it looks like they start at the beginning of September).
Because his contract can slide two years, there's no disadvantage to getting him signed now.
