There is no benefit for a team to offer sheet him unless they actually think he is worth 11M year AND 4 first round picks or else the Flames just match.
Trouba wanted a 10M offer sheet from Boston. He held out and signed 2 year deal for 6M in 2016-17. Then the arbitrator gave him 5.5 to play his 6th year in Winnipeg. The Jets got a 1st round pick and a 24 year old 3M x 3 yr D-man for him.
Not easy for a player to mess with a team.

You do realize you were arguing the Flames should pay him no more than $5 million per year. That would be a pretty cheap offer sheet.
Or maybe you are changing your stance and now saying you would pay him more. Why else would you throw out this $11 million per year number?
