But yeah, they're the same. Nice false equivalency.

From the moment Tkachuk signed his last deal with the Flames, he was setting up his departure a year early. He made a power move to attempt to be captain the season earlier, and when that was rebuffed, he was gone as soon as he could and the Flames knew it too.
He slides under the outrage radar becuase people were still upset at Gaudreau, who clunkily tried to make a last ditch effort to stay here, but his promise to his family couldn't have been overturned.
Gaudreau going had zero effect though.
Rangers in 6 or 7 and New York will hate Tkachuk by the end of game 2.
Bennett will be hunting for Trouba and Trouba will fully be expecting it.
