Asking a player to waive a clause is not dishonouring the contract. It's a request that a player can say no to. It's not a clause saying the player cannot be moved, it's a clause saying they cannot be moved to a destination they don't want to.
Especially with longer contracts, the situation that existed when the contract is signed is usually not same further in, so quite often one or both parties will look for a change.

You have to understand the reason why a player blocks a trade. In this instance it’s because Kadri has relocated his entire family to Calgary. This is more than just a place he plays, it is home for his family.
I doubt, very much, getting traded when he signed his deal was something he wanted to entertain.
People should move on. It’s not happening. At least not in the immediate future.
