I think he’s mostly properly rated but depends on who’s doing the rating. He’s a good top line scorer and one of the most physical players in the league which is becoming increasingly rare among top liners. He also creates a lot of havoc and HD chances for his team. On the flip side, he’s not good defensively and isn’t among the elite offensively. I think some people can overrate the unique element of his physical play compared to more highly skilled wingers, but in general I don’t see a lot of that. You can point to the thread against Marner but I think that’s largely due to bias against Marner for his/the Leafs’ playoffs than overrating Tkachuk.

Absolutely not, he's awesome. Man just had a baby in the offseason, he looks distracted so far but becoming a new dad at 24 has a lot of responsibilities off the ice.
