Tkachuk scored two goals -- one on the power play -- in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Avalanche in game 1 of the best-of-seven series.
EDGE Analysis
After scoring 34 times in the regular season, Tkachuk made an instant impact in the Flames' playoff run with the pair of goals. He also had four hits and three shots in the game. Tkachuk's only other playoff experience came in 2016-17, when he was held pointless in four appearances.

Tkachuk (rest) suited up fully for Monday's practice, Kristen Anderson of The Calgary Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tkachuck was held out of Saturday's game against the Oilers, but is expected to play in Game 1 of Calgary's series against the Avalanche. The 21-year-old will likely be a solid fantasy option for the postseason, having racked up 77 points in 80 games this campaign.

Tkachuk (rest) won't play Saturday against the Oilers, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Flames have been locked into the No. 1 seed in the West for awhile, so there's no reason for them to risk Tkachuk suffering an injury in a meaningless game against Edmonton. The 21-year-old American will be ready to rock for Game 1 of Calgary's first-round playoff series.

Tkachuk (rest) will return for Wednesday's clash against the Ducks, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Flames decided to rest a bunch of regulars against the Kings on Monday, but Calgary still managed to pull out a 7-2 victory on the road. Look for Tkachuk to reprise his regular top-six, No. 1 power-play role against Anaheim. With 34 goals and 43 helpers through 79 games, it's still entirely possible that Tkachuk can cap off the regular season averaging a point per game.

Tkachuk collected an assist in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
The helper put Tkachuk's recent four-game quiet stretch to an end. Tkachuk has enjoyed a breakout campaign with 34 goals and 43 assists in 79 games, as well as 104 hits and 203 shots on goal. Fantasy owners in dynasty leagues will probably want to keep the physical winger on their squads for next season.

Tkachuk scored a goal and supplied an assist in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
The left wing also chipped in five hits, four shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating. Tkachuk is up to 34 goals and 76 points in 74 games, and he's now just three hits shy of his first 100-hit season.

Tkachuk scored an empty-net goal and added three shots and six hits in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Tkachuk made quite the impact with his body before providing valuable insurance at the end of the game. The 21-year-old is up to 33 goals and 74 points in 73 games this season, as well as 92 hits and 189 shots, the latter being a new career high. Tkachuk has taken a leap forward in his third season, and should remain a top-50 fantasy option for years to come.

Tkachuk scored twice and added a trio of helpers in Friday's 5-1 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Tkachuk factored in on every Flames goal the best game of his career to date. He added five shots on goal, three hits and a plus-5 rating. The star performance gives the winger 73 points (32 goals, 41 assists) in 71 games this year. With 10 points in his last three games, there aren't many players hotter than Tkachuk right now.
