Just a thought. I'm guessing Tkachuk's camp won't do any real negotiating right now and if they don't accept a deal before training camp they'll just say we won't negotiate during the season.
Unfortunately, Tkachuk's contract status has again put the team on the weaker end of negotiations. He can string the team along.
Now the team has to put a hard deadline on making a deal and if no deal trade the player to try get any sort of return.
There's also the rumour of players wanting out now that Johnny's gone. If true that's really bad.
