Insider reveals the Flames asking price for Matthew Tkachuk
With almost every team in the league interested in Matthew Tkachuk the next few weeks are likely to be interesting. With Tkachuk only willing to sign an extension with limited teams it will likely thin the market for serious buyers. The market is likely to thin even more for teams after hearing the asking price.
Understandably the asking price for Tkachuk is high, but how high? According to I an insider it consists of AT LEAST three major parts.
Flames suspected asking price for Matthew Tkachuk: "What we are hearing is that the Flames will want a top forward, a premium prospect and a first-round pick."
So what does that look like for some of the serious contenders for Tkachuk?
New Jersey Devils - Jesper Bratt, Alexander Holtz and a 1st
St. Louis Blues - Jordan Kyrou, Jake Neighbours and a 1st
New York Rangers - Filip Chytil, Braden Schneider and a 1st
Columbus Blue Jackets - Gustav Nyqvist, Kent Johnson and a 1st
Toronto Maple Leafs - William Nylander, Rasmus Sandin, Alexander Kerfoot and a 2nd
Ottawa Senators - Alex Formenton, Jake Sanderson and a 1st
Arizona Coyotes - Jakob Chychrun, Logan Cooley and a 2nd
Buffalo Sabres - Victor Olofsson, Peyton Krebs and a 1st
These are definitely some major prices for a major piece.
