If the Flames eat 50% of his remaining salary, why would having the extra year be a bad thing? If his new team doesn’t protect him and lose him to the expansion draft, that’s a positive. It means they didn’t lose someone else.
Gio, Johnny, and Monahan all should be traded with 50% retained to maximize return. This would be intelligent asset management. Please Flames, learn from how Iggy was handled and actually get something for your assets!

There is a flat cap next year, having an extra year is not easily absorbed by contending teams. Which contenders have the space to add him this year and next year?
