If Kesler or Burrows was the transgressor everyone would be against them too. Tkachuk is the same type of player.
I understand Flames fans taking his side. Tkachuk is your guy.
I understand you seeing his actions in a somewhat different light than the rest of the league, but it still surprises me a little when I see someone genuinely confused that the majority of neutral observers are siding against Tkachuk. |
For the most part, I would hardly call these people neutral observers. And Edmonton fans clearly want to ignore the league ruling and others as Bingo has pointed out.
The only word that really matters in this case is the NHL anyways. And what was their ruling. Clean Hits, Kassian jumped Tkachuk like the coward he is from behind. Tkachuk was defenseless and vulnerable. Kassian was penalized and suspended.
I don't give a good goddamn what two idiots say on a Podcast, or what former players that are out of touch with the game that ignore the above.
