It’s relevant that the Flames have to trade him but Tkachuk agreed to sign and give them 8 yrs trade value
They didn’t trade 1 yr of Tkachuk

They 100% traded one year of Tkachuk. From the Flames perspective that was the value of the asset they traded. Florida valued that asset higher than the Flames, because they knew if they won the bidding war they get him for 8 years… so basically the Flames traded an asset they had only one year of control, Florida received an asset they had 8 years of control of.
