I think you're not realizing how much control Coleman has over his situation. Coleman has already won cups, so he may not want to uproot his family for a year and a half before he signs what will likely be his last contract. So I could see why this is a deal the Flames can't make this year. Move forward a year and he might be willing to temporarily relocate for 4 months until he picks his next destination.
It's one thing to say trade the player, and I get that the Flames maybe need to be bigger jerks when it comes to forcing players out of town. But easier for you and I to say that than actually do that. I still think the return for Coleman is a bit more in line with Jason14h evaluation than the first and former first round pick that others suggest.
