Guys like Stone checking him every time he touches the puck. Great opportunity for him but he's not Johnny. Doesn't have his vision.

In 2018-19, Tkachuk's top ES opposition was MacKinnon, Landeskog, Rakell, Boeser, Horvat, P. Kane, Pavelski, E. Kane, Kopitar, Reilly, Marchessault, and Karlsson.
...and he still put up 77pts alongside Backlund and Frolik
He'll definitely be PPG with Lindholm and Mangiapane/Toffoli,
