So what happens when the team he is negotiating with offers him something that he believes Calgary won’t match?
Who knows? I think it would depend entirely on the team and the offer.

But at this stage, no offers are coming that we know of. This could be because teams are not interested in Tkachuk as a player (although I doubt that). It could mean that he has made clear that he wants to re-sign with the Calgary Flames, which is something I think to be fairly plausible. We do know from multiple reports that Tkachuk is eager to work out a deal in Calgary, and that the team and his agent have been engaged in productive talks.
