Can we just take a moment to appreciate that today, in the waning months of 2019, the highest contract hit the Flames have put ink to is still just 7,000,000?

Judging only by his face in that video, Tkachuk looks like he isn’t heavy. So hopefully he’s in decent shape.

Still got that teenager metabolism. His dad looked pretty slim early on, too...



Will be interesting to see if the boys fill out as much as Keith did (preferably not for today's style of game)

I think he actually looks thinner in the face than previously.

Now, I think his game requires some heft. But maybe he’s lost a pound or two working on his skating.

Young Keith looks like the combination of Treliving and Matthew.

Lol breaking down players based on their face now. Good lord, this place is something.

Brady Tkachuk gives off a total Art Garfunkel vibe.

Default Flames sign Tkachuk (3 yrs, $7 mil AAV)

I really don’t mind the bridge deal at all, very happy Tkachuk is signed and it seems both sides are happy. Let’s get this season started

I like it.

If Treliving feels he can't get a long term deal done in three years he will trade him for a king's ransom. We don't know what the cap situation will look like then, maybe cap is up, maybe Frolik/Brodie/Lucic/Ryan are replaced with cheaper options etc.

Best case would of course be a cap friendly long term deal, but that was never going to happen. If we have to pay Tkachuk 10m/year in four years that is probably a good thing, not a bad, because he will be a top 10 player in the league.

So all things considered I like it. Team is intact and some flexibility was provided for both parties.

It is why Pittsburgh has had so much success over the years, with sometimes some pretty average wingers.


But you had Johnny playing against lesser defensive players which would never happen.

Anaheim has one line and you want them to give you their best winger for a UFA to be and some other stuff?

I’m just not sure why the Ducks want to sit around dreaming up ways to help the Flames.

Meh, I totally said it was just speculation. It wasn’t serious at all. I know when I lose weight it shows in my face a lot.

I thought Chris Masterson (the oldest brother from Malcolm in the Middle. Plus, he was sometimes a dick on the show, so totally a Tkachuk.

Poor Brady. Definitely didn't get the looks in the family. Plus, he has to play for Melnyk.

Speaking of Brady, he had two goals and four points in a 6-2 drubbing of the Canucks in Vancouver last night. Ottawa scored six straight goals.
