I think we're overrating on-ice performance here.
Brouwer's 32, he's seen a lot of stuff in this league, has won a Stanley Cup, and from all indications, he seems to be a great guy. Tkachuk has a lot to prove still in this league and is still just a kid playing in his second season.
Brouwer has also significantly improved recently, and while he may be overpaid, he's still an effective bottom-nine forward.
