AtlantaHotWings 1,126 Report post Posted October 10, 2024 Fredric said Tkachuk said lets go Tkachuk agreed. Then when Fredric dropped the gloves Tkachuk didn't https://www.thehockeybeast.com/nhl/bruins-trent-frederic-calls-out-matthew-tkachuk-for-his-behavior/?fbclid=IwY2xjawF07WZleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHfgdr3sq9HtCNH3sUjy-wmvdtW-W96iEME78bHEbIa8QuuSZEE65d5NLSA_aem_ZsQsH6zp5l4npuSO6bxZRg#google_vignette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmybigrigs69 373 Report post Posted October 10, 2024 Well Tkachuk isn't a nancy by any stretch, and he's a known s*** disturber, so he was prolly just trying to goad Frederic into a fight so he takes a penalty. Is that honorable? No. Is it a tactic? Yes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott R Lucidi 675 Report post Posted October 10, 2024 Mo Seider wouldn't do this. Mo Seider drops the gloves and kicks some ass. What a ******* animal. I creamed my pants twice during this fight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But once Mo did that he took over the fight. Good on Forsberg for not going down either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But once Mo did that he took over the fight. Good on Forsberg for not going down either. Was a cool hockey fight. For Americans, this is like a sophomore girls field hockey scuffle. But for Euros, this is like Hagler vs Hearns. Seider's left uppercut towards the end of it was a cool punch you don't see much in hockey fights. That's when Forsberg was like, "you know what...I think I'm good." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Axl Foley 334 Report post Posted October 10, 2024 Tkachuk is most definitely a sissy, but drawing penalties is always a smart play. So its both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kipwinger 8,756 Report post Posted October 10, 2024 Veteran move. It's a blowout in a meaningless game. Frederic is a clown if he thinks a superstar is fighting him in this scenario. Gotta wait till the end of the movie to fight the boss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kassian went HARD on Tkachuk. Pretty brutal beatdown. If I recall correctly that fight started because earlier in the game Tkachuk put a pretty predatory hit on Kassian behind the net?

Yup - Tkachuk got under Kassian’s skin multiple times and Kassian would lose it…Very entertaining. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was SOOOO good at rustling the jimmies of Doughty and Kassian in his Calgary days. Two grown ass vets losing their marbles over an 18-20 year old kid. I lost some respect for those two during those years. They would have their lil freakout and then Tkachuk would just do the same antagonistic crap the very next play. It's like bros... HE WANTS YOU TO REACT LIKE THAT. That reaction is only going to show him it's working and he'll do it MORE. Learn to keep your composure... I have a lot of respect for Matt Tkachuk because of those years too. Agree with his approach to the game or not, there's pretty much no one too big or bad that he won't fuqq with. And he's never dissuaded from playing that way by a fight or scrum. He just does it again. Kid plays the way he's gonna play and doesn't change it for anybody.
