I think you are right, but I'm also convinced that Bennett (our whoever) would not need to replace Tkachuk in order for the Flames to make the playoffs. They were clear of the mark by 12 wins and 17-points. The Flames had a +62 goal-differential. I don't think there is any question they are a worse team with Tkachuk out of the lineup, but I am also quite confident that he doesn't on his own make so much of a difference as to have them suddenly wrangling with Arizona and. Vancouver for a playoff berth. It's still a playoff team.
