Gillis has said he will never request anybody to waive their NTC, so would be pretty bad (especially to future potential free agents) if management did officially ask him to waive it.

It could very well have been just a mutual understanding where Gillis never outright asked him to waive and Luongo never demanded to be moved... Something like, "I am open to the possibility of being traded and would waive the NTC should it come to that; here's a list of teams I'd be interested in being traded to."
