I agree that Tkachuk may have been full of hot air when he said he wanted to sign long term, but bridging him instead of putting the 7 year contract in front of him and seeing what happens wasn't the right move. Some will say, "well, hindsight", but when you have a Tkachuk apparently wanting to sign long term... just seems like a catastrophically stupid move.
