No reason why the Flames aren't doing it.

So many factors. Expiring contract or not. Who the trade partner is etc...
They all did it cuz they're trading with Chi, Pit, NYR. Teams right up against the cap. Edmonton didn't retain anything with Purcell but they did with Schultz.
Florida didn't get retention on Hudler and Purcell but did with Kindl.
