The Koumontzis thing doesn't make any sense to me. He was drafted out of the USHL and played 5 years in the NCAA, so the Flames shouldn't hold his rights any more. I don't know of any situation that would allow them to keep his rights forever.
For Littler, the Flames hold his rights until he graduates college. Since he still hasn't started yet, that clock hasn't started ticking. If he starts college this fall, he'll graduate in 2028. He could choose to leave college early and the Flames would then only hold his rights through June 1, 2026, but as long as he stays in college, the Flames will hold his rights.
