The tale of Tkachuk’s season is likely the most interesting story for me as it pertains to this team. He really tried to put pressure on himself and it seems like after the Toronto incident his teammates may have told him to tone it down and he has been lost since.
Reshaping this team and giving Tkachuk an offseason to reset will go a long way to him getting back on track to the player we thought he was on his way to becoming.

I'm good with letting him bounce back, and I hope Treliving has all the information.
But I can't get past the difference in how he looks on the ice this year. Everyone has seasons where on ice shooting percentage tanks and production goes with it, but he doesn't look like the same player..
If it's own personal frustration effecting his game, then he should be fine. But if there's an issue in the room, or he wants out it's a different story.
