And, if I’m the Tkachuk’s, they would probably want 75m/8 year deals in order to stay in Buffalo.
Ya, Skinner's contract is terribad and I suppose they could argue they would want at least that given their actual performance, but I do wonder about the prospect of playing together, being the go-to guys both on and off the ice could make it more palatable for them.

But it seems like we're just having a side conversation within a sea of other speculation so maybe we're out to lunch lol
