Even on Christmas day Matthew Tkachuk is still taking in all the heat for his dirty antics, this time it's from a NHL insider, and it appears as if Tkachuk may have received a nice lump of coal for yesterdays holiday.
Larry Brooks, who has worked for the NHL as a publisher for many, many years, has released a column on Christmas day and he didn't hold back when speaking on Florida Panthers forward Matthew Tkachuk, he dug into Tkachuk's recent antics that earned him a game misconduct against the New Jersey Devils just the other night.
Tkachuk took the dirty route instead of challenging the Devils' captain to a fight, he would then jump the Devils captain at the end of the game and Larry Brooks of the NHL did not hold back in his column.
