Matthew Tkachuk is the son of an NHLer. He could just as easily have been from St. Louis or Winnipeg.

It only affects the "established fans" that choose to be irrationally angry about it. The goal of expansion is to attract new fans, not the ones that are already there.

Nice strawman argument. Who said anything about going back to six teams?
Again, how does "attracting new fans" benefit those of us who already love the game? Why should we care?
