Matthew Tkachuk ran Florida’s attack with a pure-creator game, setting up the tying play at five-on-five and multiple power-play finishes to flip scoring chances into goals. He finished with five assists, just 1 shot on net, 17:20 ice time and an expected goals mark of 0.09 — proof his value came from creating others’ chances, not his own shooting.
