I can't get over the Jet fan in the ATL saying Tkachuk won't fight.
What does the guy have to do? He's already dropped Wheeler in this series with a punch to the face.
He's now had 11 NHL fights, and is averaging three per season for a guy that plays top six minutes, the powerplay and wears a letter.
Such a silly narrative that has no fact.
I was saying to an Oiler fan at my daughter's hockey the other day ... what we as Calgary fans couldn't get was the turtle thing. Tkachuk was playing Kassian and decided not fighting the guy would give the Flames an advantage. Tkachuk has always fought when he needed to.
