How Does Matthew Tkachuk Sleep at Night?

[AngelEyes]

This is the ultimate dick move by the ultimate dick player.

Love how Hyman just stands there and watches and does NOTHING after it happens.

 

[DRGinLBC]

I'd love for him to get hit in the mouth while chewing on his mouthpiece.

Is that bad?

 

[What party?]

Peen of the week?

Peen of the week?

Every week

These actions would be the worst thing a lot of NHL'ers ever did in their entire career.

But for Matthew Tkachuk it's just another Monday night. rolleyes:

Muzz gave Tkapuke the game puck tonight and he flipped out like the little baby he is.

Takes after his dad. Like father, like son.

Exactly. I don't imagine growing up in that household was any kind of healthy, nurturing environment.

He sleeps fine.
He is doing exactly what he is paid to do, and what the team wants him to do: Mix things, up, and get under your skin.....get you focused on him and off of your game.

He's just another in a long, long line of infamous NHL antagonistic/dirty players. Sean Avery, Theo Fleury, Brad Marchand, Nazum Kadri, Andre Shaw....on and on from past to present.
Some "dirtier" or more notorious than others.

If he gets under your skin as a fan, then you know he is doing his job VERY well.


Whether or not you agree with his (or others) actions is a whole other matter.
Point being: It's been a part of the game since nearly the inception, and it's still here today.

Nah...there are pests, and there are turds. Pests get under your skin cleanly, or at least without risk of injury. Turds intend to injure, and that's what dropping your knee on somebody's unprotected spine is. If he doesn't clean up his act (and I see no reason why he would, as long as the league tolerates it), he should go the way of Raffi Torres.
