If both players in question have successful 10 year + careers, so what. Everyone is making Tkachuk sound like Lee Jessiman...

The super bust combo of Hugh Jessiman and Lee Falardeau
Guys, I'll make a bold prediction, and remember I really, really like The Kravtsov pick a lot. Tkachuk, in the best league in the world, will get more points than Kravs this year.

He’d be playing more games in a higher scoring league, not a bold prediction.
Tkachuk is playing for a garbage team and they play more games, so your prediction is somewhat cowardly.
Lot's of homers, wearing colored glasses and drinking Kool aid on here, with tons of excuses...Have a good Sunday guys!
People have provided multiple sources for you indicating that what you've been preaching is wrong. You just refuse to acknowledge it.
Enjoy your Sunday as well.

Former NHL scout who now works for the what is arguably the best destination for hockey coverage period: the Athletic
Plenty of former ESPN hockey people are fantastic at their hockey coverage.

I will never forget this debate even if it's just for the mentioning of Lee Jessiman

Former scout would've been more accurate
From Hockey Prospectus:
"One of our most prolific writers, Corey Pronman is the final word on prospect analysis, blending traditional scouting with hockey analytics. He has published over 300 articles since his debut in October 2009.
Corey’s Daigle to Datsyuk column, which launched in the 2009-10 season, is one of the longest-running and most popular features at Hockey Prospectus, especially when including his associated Top 10 Prospects series. Notable highlights include his look at goaltending parity in the draft (parts 1 and 2), and his series on changing the development systems (parts 1, 2, and 3). Interestingly, Corey initially penned columns named Moneypuck and Hockey Today before settling on prospect analysis, and branched out into the deadline-focused Buyers and Sellers column in 2011.
Corey is certainly best known for his Top 100 Prospect Rankings that appeared in our first four books, including Hockey Prospectus 2012-13, where he also wrote the team essay for Montreal, his original hometown.
A former junior hockey scout in the USHL, and current member of the PHWA, Corey’s work has been featured on websites and podcasts throughout the league, and is now available exclusively through ESPN Insider. Twitter: @coreypronman"

Overreaction much? Guy got the wind knocked out of him and you are calling him fragile.

Doesn't change the fact that we're one injury away from throwing our teenagers into the fire.
Not really.
Spooner and Namesnikov can play C if one or both of the teens aren't ready to handle those minutes.

This organization has a strong recent history of taking US kids in the first, hired a Northeast college coach, and had wahlstrom sitting there for the taking. Lots of indicators to think they would go towards a Tkachuk/Wahlstrom direction but they went eastern European forward. I think the rangers targeted someone and got him. We will never know for sure since Brady was gone.
