We have Tkachuk, Gaudreau, Coleman, and Mangiapane as guys that can be top 6 wingers. That is actually pretty strong.
Problem is we have Lucic, Dube, Lewis, Richardson, Pitlick, and Ritchie as bottom 6 wingers.
Improving on one of those guys is still valuable, even if they don't improve on any of the wingers in the top 6.

Lehkonen is not better than Lucic and is likely somewhat equivalent to Dube. I hope that Dube is actually better, but right now they're playing similarly.
That covers all of our LW slots, through the bottom 6. If we're going for a bottom 6 winger, we should obviously prefer a RHS. Further, Lehkonen is actually an offensive blackhole.
