Guessing the Flames prefer the 3 year

Player wants security with the longer term
I expect that Tkachuk wants a deal that takes him to UFA (is that 4 or 5 years?). But with a big AAV.

I expect that the Flames don't mind short term (3 years or less) as long as the AAV is not too high, that helps their contention window. They only want to pay a big AAV on a 8 year deal.
