It would be great if Tkatchuk could eclipse Johnny in importance to the Flames - because Johnny is so incredible, but in the current NHL I don’t see that ever happening. Tkatchuk is slower and less crafty. His skill level is lower and his edge doesn’t compensate.
Without Johnny this team is crap. I doubt Tkatchuk will ever be able to carry that sort of load on his shoulders.
As long as he is here, Johnny will be the guy.
