I doubt he signs his QO, as that ties his own hands in that regard.
I expect he'll either sign a new long term deal with Calgary or force a trade to a team he wants to sign a contract with.
But playing on a one year contract where he cannot sign a long term deal until Jan 1 is not in his or Calgary's best interests. He would only do that if he is adament about testing UFA.

Holding out won’t do anything for his longs term value, and will decrease his stats even further.
I agree, a one year contract is also not good for him. It’s either get traded to someone who will sign him quickly or sign with the Flames. Anything else is a huge roll of the dice. I can’t foresee another 100 point year.
