With that said his value would have been highest 2 seasons ago, but Flames were busy trying to compete and it wasn’t even a thought back then I’m certain.

His value is only highest with an extension, if he's willing to extend with a team that wants him. Otherwise his value could be higher by taking him to market purely as a 1 year rental with retention.
I know I'm stating the obvious but that's the reality that the Flames have to be balancing. If he's not going to extend with enough teams, then they need to auction him off as a rental.
