All depends on what Buffalo targets. Tkachuk is an established star player which may be more enticing than prospects. Buffalo would probably also love to send Jack to the west.

I don’t think Calgary is a front runner but I think they have a pretty intriguing package that they can build around Tkachuk. With Gaudreau expressing interest in staying I think going hard after Eichel makes the most sense as a plan A for this franchise.

Eichel, Gaudreau, Lindholm, Monahan(healthy) Mangiapane, Backlund, Dube
Hanifin, Tanev, Andersson, Valimaki
Markstrom

Assuming Gio goes to Seattle and there is a deal around Tkachuk and Eichel that would be the core of the team with some cap flexibility to make some moves. I personally think that team with Darryl Sutter as coach could be a cup contender.
