This is bang on. I'd even say all 4 are really good. But none are 'great'. They are all tweeners between TL and T6.
I think both Tkachuk and Lindholm have the potential to be 'great'. IMO the problem is that this team is built around Johnny as an 'ETL', when it simply isn't true. We need to refocus around MT and Zebulon.
