That was a fan offer...the reported Blues offer from reliable sources was Teresenko and not Kyrou
We will likely never know but Brad said other offers "weren't even close" and considering how quickly they moved him I believe it. If there were comparable offers I think they would have kept the bidding war going.
End of the day I guess it depends how good people think Tkachuk is...I seem to remember a lot of posters on here scoffing at the idea of paying him even his qualifying offer.
