I've only been watching hockey about 10 years, heavily for the last 4-5. Tkachuck is kind of a little bitch. Dirty ass play but it happened for a reason IMO. I say 3 games.

Tkachuck is one of those players like Marchand. You hate them but you love them if they were on your favorite team.

It's too soon, but it's possible he just ended Tkachuck's season with that dirt hit. I hate seeing that.

First thing I thought of reading the thread was Marchand with the slew foot. Like I said, I prob have not been watching long enough but I cannot remember one game I watched where Tkachuck wasn't instigating and being extra chippy, people are human and are only going to take bs like that so many times before they retaliate.

Tkachuk said he was fine and played in the second period, he may not get suspended at all.
