Eating mac and cheese right now.

Always go with pasta.

 

[dirtydanglez]

pasta but i'd have a hard time passing on tkachuk if the two were actually offered.

 

[Video Nasty]

Tkachuk won me over this season.

Do NOT let Nathan MacKinnon see this.

Only chickpea pasta with no sauce is allowed in the Colorado Avalanche dressing room.

Ratthew Tkaf***.

You know you makes good pasta in that one movie? A rat. He creates what Pasta is. It’s basic logic.

 

[Raspewtin]

Pastrnak but if i could pick one for my team i’d choose Tkachuk

 

[kranuck]

Changing to Tkachuk purely because panthers fans are way less annoying.

 

[CTHabsfan]

I went with Tkachuk for his overall game, but you'd be lucky to have either of these guys on your team.

Pasta is twice as productive in the playoffs. This poll is flattering for Tkachuk.

 

[dwonger]

Very close Pasta for now. Would rather have Matty on my team though (Oilers) could flip if Matty actually has a good playoffs as he had to be injured last year he was so bad vs the Oil.

Im actually very surprised at the results

Tkachuk just posted another 100pt, 40g season on an entirely different team while providing a physical element to his game that Pastrnak cant

Id at least have expected the results to be 50/50 - Pastrnak isnt THAT much better

That physical game doesn't help him produce in the playoffs, where a guy with his skillset should thrive.

 

[Despote]

Flip a coin. Arguably two best wingers in the game right now.

 

[Karl Eriksson]

Regular season, pasta. Playoffs I’ll go Matty.

Still Pasta.

Tkachuk has only 15 pts in 27 playoff games.

Pastrnak has 74 in 70

More style of play. Those numbers are reflective of their playoff careers for sure, but can’t hold Matt to Flames mediocrity. Give me the tough North American over the soft euro in the playoffs.

But voted Pasta since the poll doesn’t seem to be playoff specific.

 

[SHANNYPLAN]

Flip a coin. Personally, i'd take Tkachuk without thinking twice.

 

[bearcountry17]

Since Tkachuck broke into the league he’s put up the 111th highest playoff ppg among players with at least 20 games played. Over that time frame the soft euro Pastrnak is 9th.

Pastrnak is actually very physical and relentless on the forecheck... ?

God do people even watch hockey ? What the hell.

Why even try to compare Pastrnak's physicality to Tkachuk? Its not in the same stratosphere

 

[Mrb1p]

Because physicality is an element in Pastrnaks game, too ? Should we dismiss Tkachuks goalscoring because Pastrnaks just leagues ahead of him ?

Pasta just posted a 60 goal 109 pt season so if you value goals this is Pasta, Also if you value playoff production Pasta. Pasta is not exactly a shrinking violet either. This poll is and should be lopsided. All that being said M Tkachuk is a hell of a player too
