It’s not impossible but it would be pretty anomalous.
Mack and Makar aren't the same age like the three you referenced. There's little chance Mack plays long enough to play 18 seasons with Makar. Makar will still have 4-5 years left on his contract when most of the current Avs are retired, Mack is 36 and they're going to be retooling or rebuilding. There's no basis that he would be taking less money here. And the Flames situation should be considerably better than the Avs unless they screw up the coming few years.
