He will want 8 years to cover off some non-prime years. That’s how UFA’s roll.

So give him 8. You get more of his prime.

What's the big deal?

You get ages 24 to 32 of Tkachuk at $9 million AAV? I think you jump on that if you are the Flames.

You are hearing of contracts to power forward UFAs that take them to age 35 plus. That's a much more risky contract than locking Tkachuk up.
