Matthew Tkachuk Gets Rag Dolled in Huge Brawl by 6 Foot 4 Defensemen (VIDEO)
Chances are if you are not a Calgary Flames or Florida Panthers fan, you aren't a fan of forward Matthew Tkachuk. He is off to an impressive 2022-23 season start with 51 points on the year, but he's also a a disturber with more penalty minutes (61) than points. Tkachuk is usually on the dishing out end of cheap punches and hits.
But last night, things surely turned around...
Matthew Tkachuk was the main cause of issues that sparked a brawl towards the second period of last night's Vegas Golden Knights vs Florida Panthers game, and he surely greatly got humbled when 24-year old, 6 foot 6 Nicholas Hague decided to rag doll Tkachuk.

Does Tkachuk hurt his team more then he benefits? With all of the penalty minutes, it is usually quite one-sided and leads to his team being down a man. The Panthers may not even make the playoffs this year as they are 23rd/32 teams in the NHL's standings.
