Aho did nothing but help himself with his playoff performance. Tkachuk is in the something to prove side of that equation.

He should come in slightly less than Aho, no way around it IMO. It is all about term now is my guess..l

Yeah Flames are susceptible to an offer sheet which would pay Tkachuk above market value but I just don’t think NHL GM’s are generally in the business of doing that to each other.
