It would take Guentzel to get Tkachuk.

that was what i was thinking
Calgary's best option is to rebuild, why would they want a 27 year old whose gonna walk to UFA in 2 years for nothing. If that means that they don't get him, that means someone else is offering a star player.
if the Islanders are offering Barzal + prospects and picks. Just Barzal doesn't cut it, multiple prospects and firsts would probably be preferrable to just Barzal. I could see there being a disconnect here on how much the Islanders are willing to offer in addition to Barzal, don't see Lou going for it.
If the Devils are offering Bratt + prospects and picks. I could see this one.
If the Leaf's are offering Marner. Probably won't happen but fun to think about.
I think if they want premium prospects instead of players, the Wild make a lot of sense with how deep their pool is, Dumba going the other way as well makes the salaries work. CBJ have a pretty deep pool to offer as well. have to get creative or pay a premium to send Voracek the other way, less likely but it would be kinda funny. Kings and Ducks probably have the prospect capital to get it done as well. Overall a lot of teams make more sense as trade partners. But I think throwing in enough picks along with the prospect included above gives the pens a shot. Just my take
