But now you’ve narrowed it down to the teams that Tkachuk will sign with and can sign him which could mean a list of one or two. Whereas Eichel had many suitors, including those who would have loved to get a franchise player with several years left on his deal because they couldn’t get them in UFA. Pretty much the opposite of Tkachuk. Just not a good trade comparison even if the value ends up around the same.
