Ummm no, thats not really remotely close.

What more would it take?

 

[HugeInTheShire]

Nowhere near enough for Tkachuk, not that CGY would even consider moving him

 

[Sparky93]

What more would it take?

Pasta

 

[ThatsSoSlavin]

Not close imo, Boston doesn’t have the futures for a tkachuk deal (they’d be looking for a hockey deal probably anyway) and the only players that would make sense are pasta (not happening) or maybe Marchand (also not happening)

Tkatchuk is about as available as Pasta. So either overpay handsomely or there is no deal to be made. But imagine Tkatchuk and Marchand on the same team holy

lol fantasy land

Tkachuk's ice time is down dramatically under Sutter. Doesn't look like CGY is playoff bound and needs to blow it up. Sellers and rebuilding according to Sportsnet everyone is available.

If we needed to trade Tkachuk that badly we would be going for Eichel, not the trash proposal you put in the OP

having everyone available doesn't mean they're going to be looking to trade everyone... it simply means that if someone wants to overpay for an asset they'll take it... and this offer is nowhere near fair let alone an overpayment

 

[Bruhin]

Isn't this guy going to be Calgary's next Captain? No chance he's dealt and in any case he is, it would have to be a massive overpayment. Which that offer is far from.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

I would want a blue chip prospect in return for Tkachuk at the least

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

This is a joke right? You can't be serious...

Counter offer:
To Calgary - McAvoy
To Boston - 2021 1st (top 5 protected), Bennett, Mackey.

 

[Bloomberg]

That's terrible for Calgary....

 

[Tempo]

29 other teams will beat that offer by a wide margin.

Bruins fan living in Calgary. Zero chance they trade Tkachuk for almost anyone. It'd be like that offer being made for Marchand in 2012. He hadn't yet reached his potential but you could see it coming clearly.

 

[Horton Hears A Woo]

Pasta

I understand the op offer is bad but no reason to double down and make it worse. Mt isn’t in pasta class

 

[burstnbloom]

I want to will this into existence so badly. Matt would be amazing in Boston. Alas, the posters are right, the Bruins don't have the futures to make it compelling and their young good players (Pasta and McAvoy) are more valuable than Tkachuk so it can't work. Having Marchand and Tkachuk on the LW for 40 minutes a night. PLEASE.

 

[Thirty Seven]

I don't see Calgary doing this deal.. throw in Wagner and Moore as well.

Lol. Tkachuk would thrive in Boston. Marchand and him would be nasty together. Don't see a fit though.
Calgary definitely going to try a re-tool by trading some combo of Monahan/Backlund/Gaudreau/Gio first

Pasta has definitely stepped it up the last couple of years but Tkachuk just turned 23 and is 6th in LW scoring since entering the league. By comparison, Pasta is 7th in RW scoring since joining the NHL. There's also a world of difference playing with Marchand/Bergeron compared to Backlund/Frolik/Mangiapane, primarily. Not saying it would ever happen but realistically, Pasta and McAvoy are the only age comparable players on the Bruins roster, that would get a conversation started.

We could probably include them as well as long as a 7th round pick is returned to us.

The most tiresome excuse it never ends. If you have every watched pasta play he could carry any line in hockey. It doesn’t matter who he plays with he would produce no matter what. He’s value is significantly higher compared to MT

Also MT wouldn’t land you either of those two I’m not knocking him at all. Also pasta over the last 4 years is 3 in points of all rw.
