Tkachuk had a couple phantom assists in the Dallas series that hardly any one noticed and didn't find twine until game 7 after everybody was piling on him for being near-useless overall.

Kadri was actually containing McDavid and scoring GWGs for the Avs.

Both players hurt their hands. Tkachuk turned into a phantom. Kadri turned an 8 week recovery into 13 days and directly contributed to his team hoisting the cup immediately after.

Yes. If we're trying to win, I'm entrusting Kadri to do a better job of helping lead us there than Tkachuk and feeling rather good about it.
That's a logical and fair assessment. For 1 or 2 playoff runs I could be easily convinced over a beer or 2.

That's not the same as Kadri is >> then MT though
