The guy plays till his body is completely broken down. Both cup runs and the 4 Nations he was barely functioning, Brady I think had to dress him during the 24 Cup run.
And yes, he was a senior leader for two cups. Barkov relied upon Tkachuk to help get them the two championships, Maurice constantly spoke of how important he was to the group. To suggest he put in the "bare minimum" of effort is frankly absurd, and shows your bias.
