Will I be surprised if Tkachuk makes more than Nylander? No. Should he get much more? Also no. Maybe if the top line had become more unstoppable with Tkachuk on the right side, I'd feel different.

Tkachuk isn't better than Gaudreau. He's certainly not $2-3M better.

This is academic; I trust the GM to get it done. These threads speculating on what Treliving gets guys to sign for are never accurate.

Nylander has a $6.9 million cap and is a one dimensional player. You already said that Tkachuk wont get $7million. Do you really think that Tkachuk comes in at $6.95million?

just like other posters keep saying ...it doesn't matter what Johnny hockey signed for 2 years ago. There are going to be players around the league, not as good as him, getting more money going forward .Hell there are players making more than Mackinnon going forward let alone johnny hockey.
