Given his complex situation and the flames having the bargaining power, this is the only leverage he has. Flames have little incentive to raise their offer unless another team is interested. Wouldn't be surprised to see zadorov situation from a few years back.

Unless the flames are significantly low-balling him, I can't see this as any more than a price check. Given his situation and barely 3 mths worth of playing in the last 2 years, it would be dumb on his part to mess with a bunch of variables. He has familiarity, a place where he is going to get minutes and a fanbase/media with relatively low expectations.
