It’s not uncommon. Especially when it’s such a short trade to list.

How common is it? Give me an example of that scenario happening.

It still only gives him 84% control. There is no hundred. He can name whatever 5 teams he wants, but he has no control over what happens after that.

The Flames could easily just send him somewhere on the list with a draft pick and retained salary for the year. Since spiting yourself for leverage is obviously an option.

I bet you there’s not even 5 teams that wouldn’t take Gaudreau, depending on the deal.
