I agree that's about what'd be warranted for Tkachuk but maybe I'm the only one here who does? Quinn to me is just a good prospect. 15th overall ideally.

If he becomes a less mobile version of Jake Debrusk?

I could see it yeah. Anything more though? Unlikely

Edit:

Also Matt Tkachuk is a star / reino just v good

The only way the Flames are trading Tkachuk, is in a package for Eichel

As much as I’d like Tkachuk, this trade doesn’t really help Buffalo nearly enough, and it creates several holes that they do not need to. Buffalo does not have the organizational depth to sell so many pieces to get one player. And I’m not sure it actually helps Calgary much either.
