I agree with everything in your post, except for the "he fights" comment which I have read a few times over the last couple of months.
Tkachuk doesn't fight in the context where it's used as a plus in contract negotiations. He is an agitator who drops the gloves a few times a season, of which he is usually on the losing end.
*edit In his defence he's only going to get bigger and stronger.
