Of course you never know with this kind of thing without all the details, but my bias gut feel is that this is just Marky being a little sensitive, and having too high expectations.
He has a NTC / NMC. Not a don’t ask me clause. What he negotiated was the final say on if / where he goes, that’s all. Sorry if having to make that decision makes you stressed, it’s part of why you make millions, and it’s a lot more than most players get.
Now I get it, just cause the Flames can ask at nausium doesn’t mean they should or is what they should do to create the culture they want and respect the players. But based on everything we know, this doesn’t feel like that.
Sorry you’ve had to deal with some uncertainty Marky the past few weeks, but that comes with the territory when the team hasn’t lived up to expectations. Be thankful you have the hammer and stop complaining IMO.
