Rumor: Matthew Tkachuk done with the Flames?

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Crazy Tkachuk is still only 23 years old

 

[Mr Positive]

Teams make these trades cross conference. Theres no desire to have a constant reminder of the situation

You have to think an Eichel-Tkachuk trade is inevitable. That's a base anyway. Personally I think Eichel is worth more but that uncertainty around the neck surgery evens it out

Heard some rumblings in early Feb from someone high up in the flames org that hed be shocked if Tkachuk, Monahan and JG were on the Flames roster within 3 years. Tons of issues between them and the locker room

Surprised this took so long to come out publicly

I've heard similar things, and honestly the Flames would be wise to move all 3.

Tkachuk is a whiny me first spoiled rich kid. He'd rather goon it up over winning.

Guadreau is as soft as they come, and will never be the type of player you win with.

Monahan I don't really have an issue with. Although if he's supposed to be your 1C then the team is in trouble

 

[lwvs84]

That would be a great fit lol Him with a young Zegras,terrorising Doughty in his down years

It might be the one time people outside of So Cal watch a Ducks vs. Kings game... or rather a Tkachuk vs. Doughty game.

 

[Mike Liut]

Tarasenko + Dunn + #16 this year

 

[Legion34]

Would he even be signed at 9 million?

he will be a ufa next year? Right?

 

[Larry Hanson]

no need to complicate things. Samson Reinhardt for KT? Both players on RFA ending deals. Seems like same situation. Change of scenery? tweek if needs be. Sam was on a 40G pace this year on a terrible team without Eichel....

For Keith Tkachuk? done!
He's a little fat these days but he shouldn't cost much.

 

[Shakey Rustie]

To think if the Jets didn't move up in the draft they should have taken him instead of Laine

And yes I realize they still could have taken him.

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

He also makes $7.5 million a year. That's a huge cap hit. Players like him have been moved exponentially more often than picks that high, and that is no knock on him, he's awesome.

His cap hit is 7M, not 7.5M. I get pivks that high are almost never traded but Calgary isnt rebuilding so it doesnt exactly help them. Personally I dont put much stock in this rumor to begin with

 

[Selanne00008]

I don’t know who Reinhardt and KT are but Reinhart for Matthew Tkachuk is the start of a good deal.

I def made things complicated botching their names lol.

But yes, I would be down for a Sam/Tkachuk swap. Can Calgary do better???

I also don't think anyone in the western conf is a real player here. No way flames would move him to any kind of rival.

 

[Spring in Fialta]

Lol Calgary. I'm a Habs fan but Canadian franchises are by and large so trash.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Would he even be signed at 9 million?

RFA next year

 

[TheNumber4]

Whoever gets him will be disappointed. He’s taken a step back, sucked last year. Slow boots and isn’t even effective in his pest role anymore, as he would rather fight than just piss off the opposition and draw penalties. Would not be surprised if this was a controlled leak by Treliving to O’Brien to get the word out and get people talking about how much a Tkachuk for Eichel swap makes sense. Don’t fall for it Sabres. Tkachuk is not the player you are looking for and the return will never make up for the loss of Eichel.

 

[topshelf15]

It might be the one time people outside of So Cal watch a Ducks vs. Kings game... or rather a Tkachuk vs. Doughty game.

I wonder if he is actually the better fit over Eichel TBH...Zegras with a winger like him could be something special

 

[Volica]

Tarasenko + Dunn + #16 this year

no

 

[JT Kreider]

As a Ranger fan I'd be willing to give up more for Tkachuk than Eichel. Just about anyone other than Fox (for obvious reasons) and Panarin is on the table.

 

[DFF]

Tkachuk is a whiny me first spoiled rich kid. He'd rather goon it up over winning.

Since you insisted, I heard Matthews, Marner and Nylander don’t like each other neither…

I've got a friend saying there's smoke there.

 

[McSpecial DraiBlend]

It would scare me to have to pay him 9mill on his next contract if my team traded for him. The guy is simply not a 9mill player in this cap world.

 

[JKG33]

Ha I'd love that. Maybe then Dubas would finally trade that dipshit Marner

 

[Legion34]

RFA next year

but he has to be qualified at 9 or he is ufa

 

[PromisedLand]

marner-tkachuck straight up swap depending on what is tkachuck looking for on his next contract?

 

[Dr Quincy]

Time to force your way home.

To the ancestral land of Melrose.

marner-tkachuck straight up swap depending on what is tkachuck looking for on his next contract?

Owed 9 million on a new deal after next season.
