Maybe. Believe it or not there are people out there that look at an entire body of work and not just recent samples sizes. Eichel only had 2 goals in 21 games this year and was under a ppg but no one seems to be mentioning that?
Also the Tkachuk and Gio downfalls that this board loves to talk about are a little over exaggerated. People love to talk about how great Brady is yet Matthew will still out score him this year on a team with worse offensive stats.
End of the day if LA puts Byfield or NY puts Lafreniere on the table the Flames have no shot. I don’t think they have much of one anyway but a package around Tkachuk makes more sense than one around Lindholm for the Sabres.
