“I waited until I was drafted before making a decision, and I had all summer to get bigger and stronger, more confident in my skills. I thought I was ready to make an impact, Tkachuk said, reviewing the decision made after he was the fourth overall pick in the 2019 Draft. I was confident I could secure a spot in the alignment, and my parents, my brother knew the work I had done over the summer. It was still a very, very difficult decision. The coach and your teammates are after you, it breaks their hearts … I loved the time I spent at BU, but I knew I was ready to create new relationships. “
