I would way way rather find a way to keep Tkachuk for next year and allow him to build up his value. Flames unload a bunch of futures to get Eichel they can look to recoup some of those by trading Tkachuk after next season. Load up this year if you can

Flames shouldn't be making any trades that make them worse this season

If I have to explain that, then I feel like I'm speaking to someone who doesn't see any value in Tkachuk to start with.

How many Flames first round picks in franchise history are better than Eichel?

He's a total butthole to play against, the kind of player that can enrage the whole opposing team and kill them with offence as well.
As for St.Louis, they're aging and I can't see any package of players that would be worth Tkachuk.

In his own mind, Tom Erixon is better.

His intangibles are vastly overrated.

My nephew sent me a text yesterday saying that Ryan Popowich (Director of Marketing for the Flames) tweeted a joking "recommendation" for a thread called "The ScorchStack"-which is providing readers with "JackWatch", the official tracker of whether or not Eichel is a Flame. LOL

EF Tweets? I thought you meant Eric Francis but he hasn't Tweeted anything new since the Poolman re-signing.

Friedman doesn't have anything new either though?
Just Ryan Murray and arbitration news.

He's referring to Friedman's quote from his 31 (or 32) thoughts podcast today:
“I still think Calgary’s gonna look around until the Eichel thing is settled. I believe they’ve been right in the middle of all of that.”

Ah, sneaky. I blame Friedman for not helping to will this into existence properly.
