Tkachuk signed a contract that would ultimately result in him getting a huge payday at an early age.
While it’s short term helped the Flames cap situation short term, they will pay a heavy price for it, based on the required qualifying offer and his quickness to UFA.
He didn’t sign that contract as a favour to anyone but himself.
