My point was more that Tkachuk signed a deal that most RFA's signed that summer. Treliving did what every other GM did that summer. I don't think that meant that Tkachuk was looking to get straight to UFA as soon as possible. The Flames messed up by not signing a longterm deal last summer when the other 3 organizations signed their longterm deals. They almost certainly have less leverage now to sign a longterm deal or get a trade done.
