It's not that complicated. It's the same two year window, it just expands from eight teams to ten July 1st 2022.
So yeah, the Flames could do what you're suggesting and I'm sure a guy like Treliving will, but they're still just canvasing eight teams. Eight teams where you hope one or two have room. Either teams where one or two have room and one of those two are interested in him.
And until Calgary has it in writing that he'd waive for the expansion draft I won't be doing any mock drafts without him being protected.
