Scouting Notes

Note By Zachary DeVine · Game: Jan 4, 2016 · USA vs. Russia (WJC 2016) · Stream
Supposed to be talented and skilled and it isn’t shown here, looks oafish in this game
Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Mar 6, 2016 · London vs Kitchner (OHL) · Live
Able to control the puck while on one knee and only one hand on the stick, with a defender wrapped around him.
Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Mar 6, 2016 · London vs Kitchner (OHL) · Live
Beautiful feed for Marner who puts it over the net.
Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Mar 6, 2016 · London vs Kitchner (OHL) · Live
So calm when the puck is on his stick
Note By Zachary DeVine · Game: Mar 6, 2016 · London vs Kitchner (OHL) · Live
Tkachuk having a rough first ten minutes. Seems a little behind the game early.
Note By Zachary DeVine · Game: Mar 6, 2016 · London vs Kitchner (OHL) · Live
Tkachuk processes the game at a high level. He understands where players are going and what needs to be done. Seemingly always in a position to make something positive happen for his team.
Note By Zachary DeVine · Game: Mar 6, 2016 · London vs Kitchner (OHL) · Live
Tkachuk takes a great shot, which gets through Opilka. Strong move to the net and a good shot.
Summary By Zachary DeVine · Game: Mar 6, 2016 · London vs Kitchner (OHL) · Live
Tkachuk uses his body well in the corners and in front of the net. Can see a lot of his father’s game in him, likely the little tips and tricks it takes to be a power forward. Has pro-style game and smarts. His skating is just good, but his solid hockey IQ and on-ice vision help bridge that gap. As others have said, he can skate to where he needs to go. Both a hard shot and soft hands, Tkachuk is cemented in the top-5 for me.
Note By Zachary DeVine · Game: Dec 28, 2015 · USA vs. Sweden (WJC 2016) · Stream
I do not like Tkachuk with Matthews. they are not clicking offensively. Swap Colin White in there and see what happens.

Tkachuk with a power move to get the puck to the net.

Tkachuk spending a lot of time in front of the next, keeping square to the shooter, looking for dirty goals.

Marner to Dvorak to Tkachuk and leads to a tap in for the backside defenseman. Talented forward line.

Showed it all tonight. Fast, nasty, talented, big. He is his father's son. Power forward in the making with everything you need in a forward. Top pick worthy on every front.

The scoresheet does not reflect the impacts that Tkachuk made on the ice tonight. At times it seemed like he was controlling the game with sheer willpower, and at others just dazzled with his puck skills. On paper, the best scoring potential in this draft class.

That's why he's going to be an NHL scorer: patient, waits for the five-hole to open up, then tucks it home

Big, strong, highly-skilled and excellent hockey iq and vision makes Tkachuk an elite prospect in the 2016 draft. Tkachuk is also highly competitive and always going hard when he is on the ice.

Good play at the offensive blueline to collect an off-target pass at his feet while under pressure, establish position against the defender and keep the play onsides, and then lift a long saucer pass back to his own blueline in order to reset and escape serious pressure. Such a skilled and smart play that will never get on the scoresheet.
