At the level he is expecting to get paid his playoff performance is tightly bound to the teams performance. A 20 year old Draisatl carried the Oilers to a better playoff performance than the Flames have had since 2004.

Tkachuk on a much stronger team has played 9 playoff games 1-8 at a replacement level of play.

If he wants to get paid like Draistl he has to show up to the important games and be a difference maker.
