I think the Sabres probably prefer a prospect vs Dube, but I think this is a very fair offer. Flames get their no. 1 center. I think both teams say yes.
Flames say no.
Take out Dube and add conditional pick based Eichel GP.
2023 1st if he plays next year, 2023 2nd if plays only some, 2023 3rd if he is hurt for next season.
Something like that.
Why do you say no? Rumors are speculating Tkachuk wants out and your only giving up 13 OV and a middle tier prospect for a top 5 center who is only 24.

Those rumours are 100% fake, also eichel might miss all of next season so I don’t want to give up tkachuk if that’s the case
Doesn't he want to be traded? I've seen a few rumors as of late saying he wants out.
That rumor came from a guy who has never broken hockey news. He pieced it together and then spewed it, getting a bunch of attention for his new podcast.
That said, the concept of Tkachuk having all the cards to choose his future is 100% accurate. I just think he will be in CGY for awhile yet. Likely team captain starting this year.
