Thing with Tkachuk is that even though his playoff numbers haven't been great, is that other GMs will see his style of play as being "Playoff Peformer"
Unlike Gaudreau who will always be labeled small/soft even if his play in the playoffs was better this year.
Lots of teams will see him as the guy to push them over the edge. I think a team like the Leafs could potentially really overpay too.
