If he returns to rookie season form then he should continue developing to a 65+ point player - which in the current RFA climate $7M for the full 8 years is unlikely.

Not neccessarily great for the Flames though since based on production so far that probably moves an 8 year deal for Tkachuk to $9-$10M
To be fair, the closest prediction model out there always had Tkachuk at $9.5 for 8 years.
