That's what your hoping will happen. There likely won't be a bidding war because he likely only wants to sign with one team.

That's literally one of the most important parts of a player's trade value. That's why there was a bidding war for Eichel. He didn't need to sign an extension with any team. They could've traded him to a team he didn't want to go to. There still wasn't some massive bidding war though because it's hard to move a 10M player.

If Tkachuk was signed long term he would get a great return. He's not so I'm expecting less than Eichel got.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Fiala isn't comparable because Minnesota couldn't take any cap back and Tkachuk is a drastically better player. Mark Stone was 1 month away from walking as a UFA.

Calgary will certainly give permission to talk negotiations so you can guarantee whoever gets him will get the full 7 year extension</div></div>

Of course they are comparable. All 3 had one year to free agency. All 3 didn't want to resign with their team. All 3 are wingers. All 3 needed an extension with their new team.

You were drawing comparables to Eichel who isn't even remotely similar.

People in this situation usually only have two or three teams they are willing to sign long term with. Might even be only St. Louis based on Strickland's reporting.
