Weird narrative to create when Tkachuk also specifically said: "I couldn’t believe some of the criticism some of my teammates were getting. Especially Johnny and Mony…it really makes me sick and pisses me off honestly. They produced more than me, so put the blame on me.”

Rhett and Pinder were talking about this on the FAN this morning. If anything they said it strengthens the comments from Tkachuk because he wasn’t blowing smoke. Yes the top players could have been better but he disagrees with the hate being spewed by the fanbase towards the top players.
Monahan, Gaudreau didn’t step up but he doesn’t agree with the hate that many fans are projecting towards those players. Tkachuk was pleased with how the Bennett line and Rasmus/Talbot all leveled up their games during the playoffs
