The Flames M.O has been to get roster players back.
Would all still be very competitive offers without them having to give up Hage:
Kapanen + Engstrom + 1st
Dach + Zharovsky + 1st

Roster spots and cap matter. They need a 2nd line center, Kadri would be a huge addition too. But could someone else could become available and be a better fit. Why blow assets and then a better option is available, and you now have Kadri with less assets and adding another C doesn't make sense to push Kadri down to the 3rd line.
RS with Kadri, Montreal should consider than. Flames probably won't do it though.
