If they are close to extending Gaudreau, that means Tkachuk is on the way out. If not this summer, then next.

It will be a huge win if they can ink Gaudreau for under 9 million per. It's probably going to come to 9 or even 9.5 million. Tkachuk's QO is going to be 9, and if he has a good season we can expect 9.5 for him. The Flames can't afford 18/19 million on the LW. Especially when we need to upgrade C and D.
