Tkachuk still does an amazing job getting the puck out of his own zone and is elite at cycling along the boards. These are things that can still make him successful, but with out the right linemates and the right style of play, I think his attributes will be wasted like they were most of this season.

Wait, what? Are we talking about “between the legs by his own boards” Matt? IMO exits are one of his least favourable assets. He was great at puck protection in the O-zone though, except not this year.
