I still say JG comes in at 8.5M a year. I think that part is probably already agreed to in contract negotiations, it's the term and clause that is probably still being negotiated. It will get done before free agency, I am not worried. I think Tkachuk will want a 6 year deal and I think his ask will be $11M/yr. I think the Flames will want an 8 year 9M/yr deal. In the end I think it gets done for 7 years, 10M/yr. He will be named Captain at the same time.
