I am more than glad Tkachuk translated his game to the NHL but the players i had ahead of Tkachuk were Matthews, Laine, Keller, Sergachyev, Puljujarvi, and Dubois. Jury is still out on all of them and you should know better than to judge a draft only a year after the fact. If I had anyone else ahead of Tkachuk, it was probably by a
hair's margin Chychrun, Rubtsov, Fabbro and maybe Jost and again, due to the positions they play and their potential, jury is still out. i never even said I disliked Tkachuk, just that I felt Bennett needed a true play driver like Keller to complete his line... and he still does. Seriously, this is akin to 2012 where someone might be called out for preferring Scheifele over Calder Winner Landeskog. Premature at best.
Not sure what you were expecting to gain with the callout, but okay.
Thanks for the great video AC.
