I’m just spitballing here. Not easy to slot them. I’m not saying they’re all better, just showing it would be closer then one might think. Like I said, Tkachuk is having a great year, but I don’t know that you can base all his value off of one year.
He's an emerging superstar, he's just 24, what are you expecting? He was almost a point per game in both 18-19 and 19-20, then had a down year in 2021 along with the entire team. I think you're seeing the true Matthew Tkachuk this year. And all the advanced stats seem to point to him being top 10 in the league.

As for Johnny, he's been better this year than any of the guys you listed. It does, however, remain to be seen how he plays in the playoffs.
