Matthew Tkachuk on his Eastern Conference Finals mindset & BEATING the Bruins | The Pat McAfee Show

[@BCFilmss]

I know a lot of people don’t like Tkachuk, but the guy seems super humble off the ice.

[@biwaifu]

He's a rat. He aggitates and pisses off other teams to throw them off, and it works. Off Ice he seems pretty chill.

[@kja6336]

@@biwaifuyeah him and Marchand are both the most fun guys when you’re rooting for them but gotta make your blood boil when they’re taking down your team 😂

[@Straight_Az]

I would like Tkachuk if not for him biting that goddman mouth piece all game. Idk why but it's soo agitating. Anyway Rangers in 7 LFG!

[@nickgappmayer5939]

I love him and I’m a kings fan Hahahah. Also I love my American born players lol

[@PickledRickles]

Just another mutant you'd hate on the other team, but fucking love when they play for you. Hockey wouldn't be the same without the shit stirrers

[@willmuenzenmaier7686]

Every hockey video I say this, please keep up the hockey content! Growing the game more than the NHL

Amen!

I’m rooting for him and the panthers

[@s0upra536]

Same

[@jaym2111]

Grew up in sunrise it’s changed a lot over the years, proud of the panthers they’ve come along way

[@wakemiamigreatagain]

Vinnie Viola and Bill Zito deserve a lot of credit for making this Panthers team what it is today. Go Panthers!!!!

It's been THIRTY years since a Canadian team won the cup, hockey is already an American sport

[@jewelsbycat]

thirty years ago, an American team won.

[@electricboogaloo5645]

It's Bettman's fault, right Eric?

[@lucasw9084]

whats the comparison between Canadian Teams and American teams? That would throw off the stats. Why not look at captains on those American teams that have won

Not until the player base is majority American born which it’s gotta be getting close

Time for repeat of eastern conference champs, let’s go chucky and panthers!

[@casewojo6186]

By far my favorite player. Complete hockey player. I’m from Detroit and of course love the Wings but damn the Cats are close. Go Panthers!

[@AttilatheThrilla]

Espn got Pat turning into a talking billboard

[@awwwshucks443]

Dude wipes jersey? Yeah. Looking like a European soccer player there.

[@QuinnCloudz]

I've heard that *humidity* is a big factor to having good ice, not just hot temperatures.

[@DM-ot2pi]

Go Panthers, Matthew is an awesome player. Keep it up, Panthers. It'll be a tough series, but this is the Panthers year

[@kspace91]

Broward county!!!😊

[@morjens111]

[@PatDK]

If Oilers don’t win, I would like to see Florida win their first cup….there’s a lot of players on the Panthers that are great playoff players and I love that

[@MezterpieceTheater]

Don’t worry, the Oilers won’t win.

[@stryker1707]

Rooting for him and the panthers, redemption year for them

[@andrewpuglisi3227]

I’d like to see them ask Bennett the handshake line question

[@this-is-ahmed]

Hey Panthers! Beat the Rangers! Even though if the Rangers are tough, the panthers can get through that biggest challenge!!!!!

[@G4rr3ttDix0n]

Florida is already a “Hockey Town”, you can thank the Tampa Bay Lightning for that one.

[@getwrecked488]

For a good time…… google “Zack Kassian ragdolls Turtlechuk”. 😂😂😂

[@this-is-ahmed]

In 2000, in the second round of the playoffs, the New Jersey Devils played against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Maple Leafs and the Devils were tough. Despite the Devils went through that challenge, the Devils still beat the Maple Leafs in 6 games. So the Florida Panthers can do the same. That’s not the only time it happened.

[@beammeup1930]

Yea buddy..As a devil's fan I love that reference

[@getwrecked488]

Turtlechucky!!!!! 😂😂

[@EPiche09]

Hopefully he stays healthy for the Cats!

[@1010Huey]

The name "Tkachuk" will NEVER pollute the Stanley Cup.

[@thatJAWNraps]

as a ranger fan AND former goalie, im excited to see Igor v Bob though i think Igor comes out on top, barely - here are some thoughts and my prediction/reason Re: Igor...his #s since the all star game/playoffs are insane and he got a LOT more reg season rest than Bob with Quick playing like 1/3 games... im biased but say Rangers win in 7 ONLY cuz we get game 7 at home and Igor > Bob by a TINY margin - also they have WAY worse PP/PK vs the Canes so that could be HUGE - The Rangers PP is at 31.4% rn, FLA's PK so far is 22.1% (and our PK is killing it too and has what THREE Shorthanders in 10 games?! Causin them to be even more cautious on the PP - we have to exploit that... also they seem a lil top heavy offensivel where the rangers are getting scoring from all over without having to tire anyone out the ONLY concern i have is Fox hiding an injury, hasnt looked the same since that knee injury a few games back, hopefully he can play thtough it but whenever it all ends i KNOW we'll find out the real deal of whats goin on w him but that does take away a LOT from the potency of our PP when he's the # QB for the PP....buuuutwe just got Chytil and now Wheeler back so i cant even guess round one lineup but i home Rempe's there just to set a physical tone etc

[@michaelmcnamarajr2815]

STL represent baby! Blues messed up by not doing whatever it took to get him. If they dont get Brady, it'll be blasphemy. One of the Tkachuk boys deserves to play in their hometown where there dad is a legend (and a scout)...and theyre both best friends with Robert Thomas. Could you imagine playing the rest of your career in your hometown, hockey bed city with your best friend as your center???

[@frankwolfburg5655]

I just love when this guy gets hit😊

[@jaym2111]

Lol you lame

[@beammeup1930]

I know Pat and the crew have done a great job promoting hockey but c'mon how are you gonna weigh out the NHL Playoffs and the Indy 500?

[@Stonesour1]

One thing is a forcertain is The Coward will turtle after setting the hook !

[@frankfanning6341]

13 of the 20 Florida Panthers' (currently playing for the 2024 Stanley Cup) are ... are ... you guessed it, CANADIAN. American teams win because Canadians compete against their fellow CANADIANS! Would Americans still love Superbowl if American players helped a foreign country (with way more teams) continuously win? This goes to show u how patient and humble (and loving of hockey itself) Canadians are.

[@gigibite12]

The league had the Panthers winning the whole time, it wasn't obvious.....NHL has convinced me for sure that sports is only entertainment and not to be taken seriously.

[@scrapking77]

No disrespect to the Panther Nation but Sunrise and the greater Miami area is becoming a hockey market but not one yet. But that is not necessarily a bad thing. The current Panthers are playing with house money. No hyperventilating local media or overly cranky fan base expecting deep runs yearly. I'm betting all the Panthers players can go to the beach and go largely unnoticed and enjoy life unmolested. Bob signed for 10 mil per and nobody down in Sunrise really cared. Miami is a Heat town. Always will be. Yeah, the Panthers are good but the weather is nice and the fishing is good. I'm rooting for the Panthers so the Cup comes back home to Florida. I watched game one last night while in my pool. I remember when Florida got the Panthers and lightning franchises. Turns out hockey in Florida wasn't such a bad idea after all.

[@rossssssss]

Rangers fans, don’t watch this interview. You might actually start to like the guy and that’s just simply unacceptable for the next 2 weeks.

[@Straight_Az]

I like him. But not after tomorrow at about 7pm. I absolutely despised the entire canes team. Now that they're in the rear view. I like that group again. Let's go Rangers!!

[@rythmblood27]

😅 I’m a Bruins fan and I’m still bleeding from losing to FLA for the 2nd year in a row 👎. But I Hate admitting it but I respect the hell out of Tkatchuk and almost like him, but I draw the line at Bennett….i don’t know if that’ll change

[@Straight_Az]

@rythmblood27 yea bennetts complete scum lol. Hey look last year is 1 thing but u guys fought hard. Props from a rangers fan. You guys just didn't have the horses offensively. No shame in losing to a better team.
