Have you looked at his AST voting record? Tkachuk garnered 44% of the first team RW AST votes this past season. The only player with more was Marner with 46%. Third place was Rantanen with 7%.
He might not be a a top 10 player in the NHL, but he's top 10 winger entering his prime and he can play both wings (on top of everything else).
Anything less than an Eichel-esque return for Tkachuk is failure by BT
