Can these occur for you sentence finally? At least, for me they can't, and that is one of the constraints on there use. Hence these don't occur in my speech:

*"He's not gonna"

*"He doesn't wanna"

*"He's gotta"

Ask him if he 's gonna want to come to the party.

I'll tell you now, he's not gonna.
