There would be no discount on the last 2 years of an 8 year deal. In fact, it would be just the opposite.
Firstly it would cover 2 UFA years. And secondly, and even more importantly, it would delay his UFA until a time that would be non-advantageous for Tkachuk. The cost of those 2-years would be substantial.
