If it were possible to bet on where a player ends up, I'd put money on Tkachuk ending up in St. Louis. The key tell will be what happens in the off season, if he simply qualifies for a single season that should be all the proof that Treliving needs and he should start doing some shopping. I also think that situation nixes any homerun deals though, no team will be giving up elite prospects for a player that will probably only stick around until he hits UFA
