And there is no situation where Tkachuk holds out where Tkachuk wins.
Say he has a 20 year career. Say goodbye to 5% of that. Maybe you recover the dollars if you are lucky in outer years, but you never get that year back.
A year that you are on an expected contender. Lots of players spend lots of years on teams that are not contenders.
It’s not a hammer because a holdout is lose-lose
