What is shocking is he is currently having a better season than Monahan who is in his 4th year, Gaudreau in his third and less surprising Bennett in his second

It would be icing on the cake to have Rasmus Andersson > Joulevi in addition to having them watch Tkachuk turn into a physical first line forward.
