Tkachuk scored a goal on three shots, dished two assists, went plus-3 and added four hits in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Tkachuk picked up a point in each period, including the game-winning tally in the third. The 24-year-old was one of the few Flames not to end up on the COVID-19 list during the team's recent outbreak, and he looked sharp as ever despite almost three weeks between games. The winger is up to 13 goals, 26 points (10 on the power play), 96 shots on net, 39 hits, 30 PIM and a plus-15 rating through 29 contests.

Tkachuk and the Flames will not return to action until Dec. 27 against the Oilers at the earliest, per the NHL's statement Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Tkachuk is one of only a handful of players on the 23-man roster yet to enter the league's protocols, which has led to their significant shutdown. When these contests will be rescheduled remains to be seen but fantasy players will want to avoid the entire Calgary lineup for at least through the Christmas break.

Tkachuk and the Flames' next three games have been postponed due to the team's COVID-19 outbreak.
EDGE Analysis
Calgary is currently scheduled to return to action Tuesday against Anaheim, but that will depend on whether the team is able to contain its COVID-19 outbreak. Tkachuk is one of the few Flames players that has yet to enter the NHL's COVID-19 protocols.

Tkachuk scored a power-play goal on three shots and went minus-2 in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis

Tkachuk's unlikely to leave the top line even if head coach Darryl Sutter feels the need to shuffle his lines with the Flames on a four-game losing skid.
