I was trying to make a point about how hockey is a team sport and even the best players were not just the Lebron James of hockey. Tkachuk having a Backlund to iron out some areas in his skillset he can't do individually is no different from Crosby's chemistry with Kunitz in his prime - just about the teamwork aspect.

Kessel obviously is a good linemate for Malkin. Really missing the point still.
