Good solid game, and the first one I've watched beginning to end in a long time. I think I'm finally ready to buy into this team for the rest of the way.
Every time I watch, I come away more and more impressed with Tkachuk's game. So intelligent. Every little flip of the puck, every dodgy move across the opposition crease, every little bit of agitation done with intent, and without emotion. Such a smart player. I'm increasingly unsure who I'd pick if I could only snag one Flame for a new team: Gaudreau or Tkachuk.
Hopefully these guys are peaking at the right time.
