That paired with his intangibles and defensive play is amazing.
Sorry for horrible grammar.

It looks like he's been working with Dawn Braid. She is one of the best in the business - clients of hers include John Tavares, Mike Cammalleri, Jason Spezza. She was a part-time consultant for Calgary but has garnered enough recognition as a skating coach to be hired full-time on Arizona.

“What excites me the most is that it’s another year and another opportunity,” said Tkachuk, who is working with skating coach Dawn Braid over the summer. “Last year was my first training camp and I was new to everything. This time, you know what you have to do, how you have to prepare. This year, you have to try and do something special. I’m looking forward to the new year and the new challenges that come with it.”
