Getting a high draft pick and getting a player like that, developing him to a large extent even though he's a good player on his own and everything and then just losing him to free agency, you can't do that in my opinion. Maybe if we win a cup with him first then I'd be okay with him re-signing somewhere else if that's what he chooses.
He's a Flame and made his mark here and in the league. Brady signed with Ottawa so I don't see how Tkachuk won't want to stay here other than another team offering him a lot of money.

Brady was offered a ton of money when his stats suggested otherwise and he was years from real leverage.
Tkachuk is about a year from UFA.
There is little to compare their situations.
