If he wants to go to “ team a” he can easily invoke his clause to make it happen. Plus if flames are in a playoff position and continue the “win now” mode , would they trade him? Flames can’t put themselves in a position to lose Johnny for nothing. For me it should be he re-signs by July 28th or he is traded. They can take longer when it comes to Tkachuk considering they still have him for next year , albeit at a high cap hit.
You highly doubt he would accept a trade to take a run at a SC before going UFA and playing wherever he wants? Why?
