If the Flames wait until next year Johnnys NTC dictates things a lot more, lessens the return. Cap friendly lists his NTC as a 5 team trade list. Not a no trade.
Yeah, if you're going to trade Gaudreau, you have to do it this offseason if the Flames don't do well in the playoffs.

If he gets to his NTC, then those 5 teams are going to have the ball in their court, dictating what to give up for JG because they know they're 1 of the 5 teams.
