Matthew Tkachuk is an absolute MENACE

Mathew Tkachuk is an absolute menace and todays game 4 matchup between the Boston Bruins vs the Florida Panthers, he was at it again. It started after he got absolutely laid out by a huge open ice hit from Charlie McAvoy. A few minutes later as the period ended, he retaliated on Hathaway with a nasty cross check from behind as Hathaway went down and a scrum ensued. This built throughout the game and after Boston blew it open, it boiled over with a scrum in front of Ullmark and Tkachuk and Ullmark went at it! Ullmark got tossed in the end but it was another great game in what has been a fantastic NHL Playoffs. I cover it all in todays NHL hockey video!

Ullmark was kicked for using his blocker to punch. If a goalie uses the blocker to throw a punch they are gone! Has happened a few times this year where a goalie gets the boot for using the blocker to punch. Nothing to do with the team removing him, it the rules

[@scanman87]

​@Cardboard Sports Sorry, but you're mistaken. It was said in the post-game press conference the choice to remove Ullmark was Montgomery's. A goalie can still play with a 10 minute misconduct being served by another player. A player, except a goaltender, who is assessed a Misconduct penalty will be removed from the ice for a period of 10 minutes actual playing time. I'll say, he's fortunate it was more of an open hand slap with the blocker then the blocker itself...as a goalie, that's what I looked at.

[@alpearson9158]

this time they were correct

[@michaeldeplacido5258]

The inconsistency is what the players hate. You establish how the game will be called then completely go against the grain. Perfect example is game 3 Toronto Tampa where Braydon Point’s obvious goal that went in b4 the whistle was called back while Marchand’s same play was called a goal. But I think the inconsistencies in penalties come down to having 2 officials on the ice. How many times is the guy behind play outside the blueline making a call while the ref standing 5 feet from the play never raises his arm? Every year it’s the same thing. The first round is typically called tight & turns into a special teams series but then as the # & quality of referees get whittled down you see a more traditional approach to penalties. 2019 Stanley Cup was called tight the entire way until the finals & the refs just swallowed their whistles. It turned into 1990’s hockey where everything short of paralyzing a player was fair game. That Cup hurt the league in so much as it reinforced that old standard of anything goes in the playoffs, which is obviously not the direction the NHL wanted to go. Thus this battle plays out on ice in each series where the refs are trying to maintain the new standard but the players the crowd & the ratings are suggesting a happy medium between old & new is far more entertaining. I also think these refs are too much influenced by the score & by by the idea of needing to even things up so that a bad call is in turn followed by another bad call on the other team. It takes away from the flow of the game. A great official is one that I don’t notice his number or his name. But that is a rarity in today’s NHL unfortunately

[@triggertimetraining6963]

Not taking that crap & dishing it back out Patrice bergeron and his gentleman's game came back game 5. The fun was over, that leadership lost 3 Games In A Row 🙄 Apparently Bergeron and Coach Montgomery did not get the memo it was playoffs -Matthew got the memo Bruins were not responding game 5, when Patrice returned from injury, and Brad marchand was dropped down to assistant captain They were told not to respond, as instructed by their coach and leader... I don't blame Matt. Hockey is a game of exceeding boundaries. If no one's going to stop him? It's effective? Then what the hell! I've been wearing black & gold for well over a half-century I wasn't pissed at Matt over his tka-chokeholds 😆 I was frustrated with the bruins that they didn't let Charlie McAvoy simply flatten him out, take the penalty and move on! And you're absolutely correct Bruins GM, Don Sweeney has watched bruins get tossed around & flattened like pancakes 🥞 the last two playoffs, since Nick Ritchie left and zdeno Chara departed. We're all tired of watching a 5 ft 9 inch lil ratt trying to play enforcer instead of in scoring position. Yep, big bad bruins are coming out to play- And yes, our bruins son, now a big brother, is coming back to his home ice. Looooch! Between Linus ullmark setting the tone for his team & upcoming season, clocking Tkachuck across the head with his blocker, and looch returning? I can't wait for this upcoming season... Payback's a bytch. just let hockey play it out, Tkachuck is putting out what he's taken to get this far in the NHL guys carry vendettas on for years... Let them take care of it, you don't need to get nasty as a fan. You're not getting the bruises I'm looking forward to a lot of vengeance! 1972 big bad bruins revenge tour That was the year after they choked, as the 1971 cup favorite After setting a franchise record for most winning regular season with a brand new coach, the record they broke this past season. They choked first round against the Habs That sounds familiar 🤔 1972/2024 🏆🐻

@@TheFoolintherainn Well said and great Zep song. Add 2010 when flyer richard took out Krejci with a legal check. Dislocated his wrist..twe were up 3-0....flyers came back and bounced us....the next yr 2011 was surreal where , in 4 rounds to win Cup, Bs had 3 series go 7 games except Flyers (4-0 sweep, payback for the Krejci hit) ....#46 led playoffs in scoring. Friend, I can't wait for this season as well. And I agree with you about #37 coming back and playing too gentlemanly...peace out man

Ullmark didn't get "tossed from the game." He got a 2-minute penalty served by David Pastrnak. They decided to give Swayman the net. Don't put Linus in with Binnington

[@mikecho8008]

Tkachuk has so damn much talent , I he’d just play to the line instead of crossing so many he’d be incredible . But that shit he said to Nosek from the bench should never have been released. Marchand said it best after last nights gm

[@bdcmatt9041]

Soon as that hit happened I knew it would rile his ass up.

[@todayIfoundthis]

The first Bos goal wasn’t reviewed. The original call was overturned on the ice.

[@TheMiniWumbo]

Saw a comment on facebook, dude said "Tkachuk use to be a player I would love on my own team until he starting taking these idiotic penalties" and I couldn't agree more. What's worse than losing 5-2? Being an asshole coming after a tendy, cross checking in the back of the ribs, and chewing that damn mouthpiece like he a kid with untreated ADHD in calculus

[@kevinrasmussen1319]

Might as well just pull out the golf bag now Mathew. In other news, Hall is having himself a series... and great to see Bert in the playoffs and scoring goals.

At some point I saw a panther player try to cross check a bruin in the THROAT, thankfully he guarded against it or else that could’ve been horrific. I swear, the panthers and leafs are playing really dirty this first round

[@oddity4all2see]

If anyone watched the isles /canes and oilers /kings game 5s did you notice that they each had a player score from the same spot both deflecting off their mouth? What are the odds

[@Wayf4rer]

So many people were dogging the Tkachuk trade when it happened, which is crazy to me. Tkachuk instantly lights it up in Florida, meanwhile Weegar and Huberdeau both have abysmal seasons in Calgary not looking anything like they did in Sunrise.

[@keithrg]

i remember everyone dunking on calgary for making such a horrible trade

[@glancegha1733]

They kind of had no choice. When selfish players (like his Dad was), say they don’t want to play for their team what real option does a GM have?? I still think Calgary won that trade (but time will tell) and GM far exceeded my expectation on the return. Did players underperform due to coach & his playing style, they wouldn’t be the only players on that team that had a bad season.

[@gregorsmith]

Tell me in 5 years how this trade went. One season doesn’t mean anything especially peeing down your leg in the playoffs

The amount of hard cross checks in the NHL are shortening players careers, even 99 retired early because of this.
