The same with Toronto. I would ask for Nylander, Amirov and their 2022 or 2023 1st. There is exactly zero pressure on Calgary.
There is zero pressure when Tkachuk signs a long term deal at 7.5 M. If he goes into next season unextended with his QO of 9M and wanting to force his way out of Calgary you might consider that a bit of pressure.

It would be risky to trade him until you see him on a Flames team without Gio as captain
