If the player doesn't reject the waiver period, he has to go through waivers... except he has a NMC, so he can't be placed on waivers without his permission.
Everything you quoted verifies what I'm saying. Literally everything.

You need to read more carefully. All the NMC does is allow them to not go on waivers, it doesn't stop them from being bought out. They can agree to go unconditional waivers to see if someone claims them. That is the choice they have.
a player has a full no-move clause (NMC) in place then the player can agree to
forgo clearing waivers before having their contract terminated.
"A player can only be bought out after clearing unconditional waivers. A waiver-claim by another team pre-empts the buyout process
. If a player has a no-movement clause, the player can reject the option of waivers and proceed to the buyout process."
Another one from Sportsnet
An NMC prohibits a team from moving a player by trade, loan or waivers, or assigning that player to the minors without the player’s consent. This keeps the player with the pro team unless that player permits a move by one of these means. An NMC does not restrict a team from buying out or terminating a player’s contract.
