If Tkachuk plays with Monahan and Johnny for most of the year? We'll see.

He played PP with 4 rock stars all year, and Backlund as his C is no slouch. Even Keith spoke really highly of him. He does a ton of heavy lifting defensively that actually makes a lot of what Matt accomplished at even strength possible
Look, I think Tkachuk is really good. But he has to take another step to reach the level of the guys you are talking about
