Tkachuk (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's Game 4 against the Stars, Farhan Lalji of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tkachuk was also considered a game-time call for Friday's Game 3, but he ended up missing that contest. The Flames didn't appear to be hamstrung by the 22-year-old winger's absence, coming away with a 2-0 win to take a 2-1 series lead. If Tkachuk is able to return Sunday, he'll jump back into a top-six role and a spot on one of Calgary's power-play units.

Tkachuk (undisclosed) isn't on the ice for warmups Friday, indicating he'll miss Game 3 versus the Stars, Kristen Anderson of The Calgary Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tkachuk was roughed up frequently during Thursday's Game 2, and the quick turnaround was too much for the winger to overcome. Alan Quine or Byron Froese will replace Tkachuk in the lineup, while Dillon Dube figures to vault into a top-six role. Tkachuk's next chance to return is Sunday.

Tkachuk (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Friday's Game 3 clash with Dallas, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
In his first six postseason outings, Tkachuk has notched one goal, one assist and 10 shots while averaging 16:48 of ice time. If the pesky winger does miss Friday's matchup, the coaching staff will likely have to choose between Milan Lucic or Dillon Dube for a spot on the second line. With Austin Czarnik (personal) leaving the bubble, it could open the door for Zac Rinaldo to return to the lineup as well.

Tkachuk left Thursday's Game 2 versus the Stars with an undisclosed injury, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tkachuk spent most of the contest in and out of the locker room before leaving the game permanently in the third period. After the game, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun reports interim head coach Geoff Ward had no update on Tkachuk's status. With a quick turnaround for Friday's Game 3, it's unclear if Tkachuk will be able to shake off his current injury. If he can't play, Zac Rinaldo or Austin Czarnik could enter the lineup.

Tkachuk recorded an assist and two hits in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Jets in Game 4.
EDGE Analysis
The Jets got a little physical retribution on Tkachuk, who drew his fifth penalty of the series on a Dmitry Kulikov high-stick in the third period. He had two points, 11 hits and nine shots on net during the four-game series. Tkachuk should continue to be a force both physically and on the scoresheet during the Flames' playoff run.

Tkachuk tallied 23 goals and 38 assists in 69 games before play was suspended in mid-March.
EDGE Analysis
The 22-year-old would probably fall short of last year's fantastic 34-goal, 77-point effort if the regular season resumes, but he's still the current leading scorer in Cow Town. Tkachuk's shooting percentage predictably regressed this season from 16.4 to 12.2, but he's turning into a true point-per-game threat as he continues to grow and develop after four seasons at the NHL level.
