all this answer the bell stuff is BS too, that was an attack. no time for tkachuk to do anything, he was attacked from behind by a guy who just had his pride wounded. selfish idiotic behaviour i hope he gets hammered with a suspension like 7 or 8 games.

Watching those replays makes it clear how Tkachuk knows that hitting Kassian makes good things happen for the Flames. Those aren’t reaction hits. Each time Kassian has the puck or is battling for it, and is engaged with another Flame. You can see the light click in Tkachuk’s head and he skates over to lay him out.
I totally see why other fans hate Tkachuk. He is targeting Kassian all game but won’t engage in a scrap. He should keep doing it until Kassian or the Oilers adjust.
Both are “dirty” players. One is smart, the other isn’t.
