I think Flames fans do think that the Aho contract is the upper limit, but I bet the Tkachuk camp thinks he's a better player and therefore is worth more.

They will likely point to the intangibles that Tkachuk brings and cite that as a reason for a higher contract.

I actually think there won't be a deal unless the Flames give him what Aho got.
