They've allowed the agent to work with team on a potential deal contract extension. If the Flames can't find better value beyond a pure rental scenario elsewhere, they can now move him as a sign and trade and obviously extract a lot of value from Tampa.
Does an extended Hanifin net you Sergachev coming back the other way? I would be interested in that as it doesn't appear that he has trade protection until next season. It obviously works for TB as they wouldn't be subtracting for this season either.
