Matthew Tkachuk Brings Scoreless Streak To A Halt
5 years agoCalgary Flames forward Matthew Tkachuk put an end to a rare five-game scoreless streak on Tuesday, registering a goal and an assist in his team's 5-4 shootout loss to the visiting St. Louis Blues. The divisive winger recorded both of his points on the man advantage and also added a pair of shots and two hits in 20 minutes of ice time in the contest. Despite experiencing a drop in production in January, Tkachuk is putting up another sterling fantasy season in 2019-2020 - checking in with 40 points (16 goals, 24 assists), 14 power-play points, 134 shots and 98 hits through 50 games played. The 22-year-old is highly valued due to his consistent cross-category production and should be relied upon as a top-40 contributor as the season continues to move along. He'll be back in action versus the Oilers in a much-anticipated match-up on Wednesday.
