Not necessarily.

Could mean that Zag wants a KHL offer in his back pocket to help strengthen his position in contract negotiations.

Could also mean that he wants to go back to Russia.

Could just be the Russian team kicking tires on him.

If the Flames give him a QO and he signs with the KHL, they will hold his NHL rights until he turns 27.
