Yeah I'm no fan of either of the tkachuks (especially that flames poo poo head version) but that looks like a blade hop trying to stop and not a Matt Cooke'ian event

Yeah Tkachuk's a dick but he's trying to check Schiefele there, not kick him.

Kilza, you're projecting on poor Matthew because your team poo poo the bed repeatedly in their own end... It's ok, it's only hockey, why you hef to be mad? The Matthew Tkachuk friendship tour continues.

As the sane Oiler fan, if that's possible, gently caress Matthew Tkatchuk but not for that play.

Even if it's not intentional, it's very reasonable to interpret that as negligent rather than purely accidental.

I don't think Tkachuk meant to kick Scheifele with his skate, but I do think Tkachuk meant to still get a piece of Scheifele after he turned away to avoid the incoming hit, and the result is the result.

What on earth was negligent about that? You can see his skate blade kick up when trying to stop, which happens frequently. Especially on lovely ice and this was the 2nd game of the day

In no way did Tkachuk try to slice Scheifele anywhere, but the NHL should still banish him just to be safe imo

If you get suspended in the NHL bubble there should be a dedicated "shame" section of the hotel you have to stay in. Matt Tkachuk sleeping in the basement for 2 days

If it wasn't the first five minutes of the first game and it wasn't tkachuk nobody would even consider the possibility that it was intentional. Personally I wouldn't put it past him but the video makes it look accidental. The only thing I am sure of is that my enthusiasm for this entire tournament is nearly gone now

I realize that was a very deflating loss, but I need to you remind you both that you're playing a team that regularly shits the bed in meaningful hockey games. Also as much as I joke about Matthew Tkachuk, it's mostly to rile up a certain irrational poster... I obviously really hated seeing Scheifele writhing around on the ice.

We will know that the worst of 2020 is behind us and things are trending back to normal when the Finals matchup is two Canadian Teams and the whole thing gets canceled due to Plague. Edit: new fans are the best no matter what team they cheer for. Glad to have you onboard Jupiter Jazz
