Yup. Pretty much handled it the completely opposite way Gaudreau did. Say what you want about Tkachuk as a player on and off the ice. But he's been a consumate professional since day 1. I'll always be grateful he had Keith as his father to show him the ropes. I have zero qualms with how this went down. Tkackuk gave the fans one final present as he left, and he'll always have the fanbase's respect for that.
I'm not as resentful to Gaudreau as others are, but Tkachuk outclassed him here by a longshot and deserves credit for it.
