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

This is the only realistic proposal I see. Something like this is likely what it takes.
Eichel, Johnny, Lindholm, Monahan, Mangiapane, Backlund left. Probably not much money to spend on a good dman. I still don't like the look of that roster that much.
I'm back to trading these guys for futures and rebuilding.
