I don’t think it was the offer sheet, I think it was the QO they wanted to push so a trading team can extend him. All signs point to that.

Also it stops teams from being able to negotiate with him, so a Tkachuk can’t tell them he has no interest in signing long term and scaring potential trade suitors off.
