The interesting part of this is how during the draft all the question marks were about Matthew Tkachuk, and how he may just be a product of Marner and Dvorak and unsure if he would become a player of his own in the NHL.

That reason was the main reason why Tkachuk was available at #6.
It's crazy to think of just how good Dvorak-Marner-Tkachuk was as a junior line, with all three making a difference on their respective teams right out of the gate.
As for Poolparty being underwhelming and not living to the hype, that's a shame
