I'm not using them to say Tkachuk is better or worse than anyone. His primary production is also above Nylander's.
His situation as a whole seems very similar to Landeskog. Many fans are lukewarm because of his production, but most scouts love and adore him.
I'd still have him at 6 after Dubois, but I wouldn't be too upset if the Flames took him at 4 or 5.
