Good chance all we have to show for these two players when all said and done is a late 1st, decent prospect and decent roster player
Makes keeping Lindholm, Hanifin and Mangiapane moot

How do you know this?? I mean really over the course of the last decade how many J.G. Level players have ended up walking?
Tkachuk will garner interest even with the price tag. He is a unique skill set, while playing both ends of the ice. Just seems like determined misery some times.
I get it. Flames fans are used to disillusionment but this team is a good Center and a good right winger away from being as good as anyone. Not to mention we have the assets to aquire both of those without gutting the pool or roster.
Far as I’m concerned both Tkachuk and Monny are gone at trade deadline and Johnny stays. We need a Horvat/Hertl/kahdri level second line center and a winger and the entire dynamic of the team changes.
