Tag team operation, @TSNBobMcKenzie and @DarrenDreger reporting that #Flames are closing in on three-year deal with RFA Matthew Tkachuk worth around $7 million AAV.

Tkachuk ends up with a higher AAV than Point, but $1.02m less overall in his pocket over term of deal with taxes.
So, ~330K lower than Point per season, which seems pretty bang on.

Reality of varying tax rates across the league. We pay more to pay the player less.
