Speaking of Brady, I read a stat yesterday that said while Matthew lead his team by a wide margin in rebounds generated, he also lead the NHL with his brother Brady close behind in second place.
Talk about some proper parenting right there.

COOL STAT
Tkachuk loved to both create and capitalize on secondary chances.
In addition to scoring a ton of goals right around the net, he also generated 50 rebounds, according to MoneyPuck.com, which were 24 more than the next-best player on the team.
Of his 322 shots on goal, 11.7% led to a rebound.
Taking a look around the NHL, Tkachuk, who also led the league with 13.5 expected goals on shots taking from rebounds, was one of just four players to generate at least 40 rebounds this past season, with the others being Brady Tkachuk (47), Bryan Rust (41) and John Tavares (40).
At this point, it's safe to argue that there's no one better around the net than No. 19.

Edit: Updated to include the snippet and fix some accuracy issues in my original summary. (I originally stated it was the NHL he lead by a wide margin, which is incorrect.)
