Lol he's about to get paid more than Draisaitl to produce at a 1/3 to 1/2 of the rate
Drai hadn’t won Hart when he signed so what’s your point?

To LA: Tkachuk
To Ottawa: Byfield
Ottawa can dream, but they need to trade Tkachuk.
Kings do not need to trade for Tkachuk.
Tkachuk is the kind of player you love to have on your team because he does that extra grinding work, he is also the player you don't break the bank on. Leafs walked away from Hyman for a similar reason, talent is a premium and you can backfill with grit via trades and FA
I agree, he's the kind of player you love on your team...other fanbases just think to themselves we already have a grinder who can put up 30-40 points.
He's never going to be a game breaker or maybe even a good complimentary player unless everything goes right, but he'll always be an energy player and those are important too...are they worth the contract he's probably going to get though? Probably not.
I will bet you any amount up to $5000 that you want that Ottawa will not trade Tkachuk in the next 365 days.Ottawa can dream, but they need to trade Tkachuk.
Kings do not need to trade for Tkachuk.
Everyone forgets that Drai wasn’t a ppg guy until his 23 year old season if he would have signed the deal after that year he’d be making way moreDrai hadn’t won Hart when he signed so what’s your point?
I mean, Ottawa doesn't need to trade Tkachuk. They control the next 5 years of his career. They can wait until 2026 to trade him, if they want.
Wouldn't expect anything other than a garbage take from most Oilers fans on here
Let me try this again. You NEED to DIVERSIFY.
I have been told but never took it seriously, until I finally saw it with my own eyes.
At the same time, I just read some Kings fans posts and they might be even worse lol
- "The other pieces add very little compared to what you're asking for"
These other pieces were Erik Brannstrom and Connor Brown with 50% retention (1.8 x 2 years). What was "asked for" was Turcotte, Clarke, Maatta, Quick, 2022 1st...
- "So the Kings are exited to get an elite offensive dman just to trade him away for lot's of garbage and give up Turcotte and a 1st on top?"
The "garbage" was Tkachuk, Brannstrom, Connor Brown (50% retained)
Oh the icing on the cake :
"For ***** sake........
Tkachuk is a 20+ goal scorer.
The only thing i would offer for him is either or in any combination Iafallo, Athanasiou, Maata, Danault, Wagner, Brown
You can pick either a single player and a 3rd or 2 players in any combination"
I think it's the biggest homerish post I have ever seen
DIVERSIFY what?
Your package has absolutely no value outside of the 1st

The difference between Kassian and Tkachuk is not as big as you seem to think. Benson could be your 3rd liner and 1st could be anything. Diversify!
You're comparing a 22-year old top of the line power forward to a 30 year old grinder. You have lost the plot.
Career high of 45 points. I get that you like to overvalue your own players but in reality the difference between those two is not so huge, considering that you guys need to DIVERSIFY.
You schmuck, you do understand that Tkachuk is 22 years old right? Is that not getting through your thick head?
Compare him to the gems your team drafted in Yamamoto and Puljujarvi...
Ottawa can dream, but they need to trade Tkachuk.
Kings do not need to trade for Tkachuk.
Lalthere's literally another active thread on this forum right now with a Sens fan saying on the first page that the difference between Draisaitl and Tkachuk is smaller than Josh Norris
LOL and why do they "need" to trade Tkachuk?
Lmao. I eagerly await you making a non-ridiculous & ridiculable statement but clearly we're not there yet.
Say, what are your thoughts on Josh Anderson and Brendan Gallagher?
Yeah you're 100 percent right. Why would the Leafs do that? Leafs save 2.9 mill but lose the far superior player. Only thing I would entertain is a deal around Nylander.Marner for Tkachuk makes both teams better IMO, and saves Toronto some cap space. Brady oozes that "playoff monster" kind of play. Even if it's not on a score sheet.
Will never happen though
Because they do not want to accept his salary demand…
You called him a grinder good for 30-40 points dude. You have a track record, I know you will play dumb but I respect your intelligence enough to not play along.Tkachuk is an energy player, what's wrong with that statement? There's nothing wrong with those, every team needs one in their top 6.
Thanks for the laughYou guys need to diversify. Maybe something like
Kassian
Benson
1st
How bout Tierney for Yamamoto and Puljujarvi? A 40 point centre for two 25 point wingers.Career high of 45 points. I get that you like to overvalue your own players but in reality the difference between those two is not so huge, considering that you guys need to DIVERSIFY.
Its not a serious offer.I have been told but never took it seriously, until I finally saw it with my own eyes.
