Does the 3rd round compensation pick count ONLY if the Flames sign him?
What if Vegas (or any other random team) signs him for a deal that the Flames agree to, and then they flip him to CGY for a 5-7th round pick? Win for the other team, and Flames... not so much for Blues.
Guess it's more a question of wording of compensation clauses, and if a team is willing to burn a bridge to go through a potential loophole.
