Does tkachuk throw a ton of dirty/questionable hits?? There's the one elbow on doughty he got suspended for, but i just don't think he is out there laying out boarding calls, cross checks or checks to the head, etc, often enough to get remotely close to be mentioned in the same category as torres/cooke. Ryan Kesler is the best example of this in my mind. Always doing these little annoying things, that most of the time go unnoticed, hence, uncalled. Tkachuk is just a kid who has to figure out what that fine line is, which is a line kesler has damn near perfected over his career.
