He has a positive impact on every facet of the game and an elite impact on most. The Athletic has his contract as top 5 most valuable in the league based on their metrics.
Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love the return the Flames got and do think that Florida over paid, but reading a bunch of Flames fans downplay Tkachuk’s impact and say they’re “happy he’s gone” just comes off as embarrassing

I doubt this ages well, he is coming of his career season and Lindholm/Gaudreau/Sutter ect. were a major factor.
Flames had ridiculous fancy stats last season, like historically good. For 9.5M you need PPG to even be a decent contract let alone a bargain.
