Just bizarre the dislike for Tkachuk by some.
Terrible season this year for sure....which can be said for 90% of the players on this team.
But how does one ignore his average of 65 points a year his first 4 seasons, his ridiculous ability to get other teams guys off their games, the ability to draw more penalties than anyone else in the league, and his clear ability to drag his team into the game at times.....all before the age of 22?
Is his contract an issue? Not yet. And as such gives the club lots of time to figure out what the issue is before selling low on him this summer.
IMO he is the single most unlikely forward to be moved other than Lindholm.
Teams are thrilled to try and draft a guy like him year after year and hope he pans out.
Here though? Some "fans" want to personally drive him out of town because he's had a bad 50 games.
Just weird.
