If you still think he didn't really matter, the math says your wrong. Guy totally helped change the dynamic of that team into a legitimate contender. And it's not just Tkachuk fanboys like myself who think that.

He is a big part of their team...Bob going from a 10M backup worst contract in the NHL to a top goalie was an even bigger factor though. He wasn't even the starter to start last playoffs, and they were down 3-1 when they decided to put him in. It's remarkable.
Being the 4th or 5th best player on a cup team is not an insult at all.
