And the 4 1sts is a pipe dream for Buffalo. Very few teams would mortgage that much of their future for a damaged player, no matter how good he is.
I, for one, am glad Treliving isn't interested in paying the ask as it stands now.

Tkachuk is one year left at $7M. Then his QO is $9M the following year. I'd rather have a $10M Eichel, then a $9M Tkachuk.
