If Tkachuk will play for Ottawa, they can wait a year and get him for free, and not give up a couple of foundation pieces

It's a hockey trade and makes sense for both teams.
Waiting for player you want comes with risk, so if you can get him right away you get on it, not wait and try to out bid other teams. For all they know he'd already be traded and signed long term with another team by then, or signed long term by Calgary.
