I don’t see how Tkachuk doesn’t follow suit of the majority of high pick/high impact players coming out of their ELC and sign a long term deal. He may want to push it off until next summer when he is a rfa and can have a third strong year to maximize his value. He may want to take the Ekblad route and sign a year earlier if the Flames pay him an acceptable amount
