Four players/prospects farther along in their development, playing at a high level, is a huge ask. One that I would be willing to give up for Eichel.
Tkachuk
Monahan
one of Pelletier/Zary

Tkachuk's performance this year has been pretty pedestrian so no one is considering him worth two recent firsts. Based on that article the deal would have to be Tkachuk, Monahan, Valimaki and one of Zary or Pelletier, which is an insane amount to give up for a player that has not elevated the team he is currently with. Flames would be insane to jump into this as it would hollow out the team for a decade.
