Could the Flames get away with Dube, Valimaki, 1st and one of Pelletier/Zary/Cornato????

I just think Tkachuk has to be in the deal to have a chance, I can't see Buffalo saying yes to that.
I said this earlier, but something like:
Tkachuk + Protected 2022 1st + one of Pelletier/Zary/Valimaki/Dube + 2nd or a prospect like Petterson
It's a lot, but I think this is closer to what they're looking for. Even if Tkachuk has no interest in signing long-term with Buffalo they can flip him to somewhere like STL for even more futures.
If Tre landed Eichel without giving up Tkachuk I would be amazed. Hopefully Buffalo caves and decides to lower their price before his NMC kicks in
