I would expect that term is more the issue. Tkachuk wants a shorter term but the AAV also. Treliving only wants to give an AAV starting with an 8 on a 7-8 year term.

Aho continued the market set my Matthews by getting the short term and the high AAV. So why wouldn’t Tkachuk want the best of both worlds?
