I find it funny that people called Suzuki and overpayment but are calling Brady Tkachuk’s deal good value for Ottawa.

There are some concerns with Brady’s game to be honest. He’s not nearly as strong defensively as his brother and is actually poor in his own zone. And his point production has been stagnant from a PPG perspective.

He’s great at generating chances, and plays a physical game, but this is an overpayment unless he takes steps offensively.

And with Matthew signing a bridge instead of a long term deal it all comes back to the poor signing of James Neal…that was always a mistake to lock in that cap but when you had Matthew as an RFA in 12 months. It put the squeeze on the Flames.
