What do you figure Tkachuks contract will be? It's fair to suspect me for being wrong but please provide your thoughts, I'd like to understand your reasoning behind a different number.
Just for visualization this is a quick roughly mock-up of the team he came up with:

Gaudreau (6.75) - Monahan (6.375) - Lindholm (4.85)
Tkachuk (7.5) - Backlund (5.35) - Stone (8)
Bennett (2.5) - Jankowski (1.675) - Neal (5.75)
XXX (1M) - Ryan (3.125) - Czarnik (1.25)
XXX (0.8) XXX (0.8)

Giordano (6.75) - Kylington (0.730)
Hanifin (4.95) - Hamonic (3.86)
Andersson (0.755) - Valimaki (0.894)
Stone (3.5)

Rittich (3)
Gillies (0.75)

Brouwer (1.5)

Total: 82.4M

Moving Brodie for assets seems reasonable. Top 4 on a good, ending contract. No need to take anything back. Frolik getting moved for Stone I see as the bigger problem. Signing Stone for 8M is probably the most difficult, I see him as more as a 10M player if he wants it.
