Toning down the fan boy, and on a more serious note, real question. Do we have a good comparable of a player who has found major success at every level, breaks out in the nhl and then drops off (injuries excluded) ?

I think some people need to pump the brakes a bit. I wouldn't call 12 goals and 25 points "breaking out" and Tkachuk has a habit of making 3rd line players look good. I like the player but it's a little early to start getting carried away as he's still work in progress and Mark Jankowski had a more impressive debut playing a more difficult position and look at him now.
