With most rumoured things there is likely some truth to it, and but it resides somewhere in the middle.

My guess would be ... Tkachuk overreacted a bit to players not coming to his defense. I think there's some truth to the idea that players were leaving the ice and didn't see it. And then in that discussion some players suggested every night didn't have to be chaos.

But he certainly wasn't himself, and that's on him.
Why is it on him when your supposedly leadership tells him not to play his type of game anymore. The type of game which he excelled at for his 1st 4 years in a league and got him a $7mil/season + contract.

But lets be honest. This group has been soft as kitten pillow toilet paper for years now. When everyone else tells you to back off and conform, why wouldn't Tkachuk's play fall off a cliff?
