It really wasn’t that bad of a hit, it was just not the right time for it, being OT.
He was already getting a penalty at that time...I think hitting Kucherov when he was down after the first two infractions is what Tampa will be up in arms about
but like I said, in that media market nobody cares
Kelly and Elliot won't be campaigning for a suspension on Saturday night like they would if it happened against the Oilers ect.

For anyone that hasn't seen it...slash is already being called...Its the hitting the star player lying on the ice that is the worst part IMO. Not sure how he gets out of that with only the extra 2 mins
i feel like Tkachuk is putting on his work boots for Florida . even with the 104 points here he floated a lot I think . or at least game to game was inconsistent . that arse .. hope he gets lots of golfing time out there
Yeah not terrible but as said if that was McDavid the Saturday panel would be asking for a government investigation.
Will be interesting to see through the season how Maurice handles Tkachuk when he has his moments like this. Maurice wanted him kicked out of the league for his supposed attempted murder on Schiefle in the bubble playoffs a few years back.

It was wasn't terrible, but just really stupid. TB definitely deserved a PP out of that.
Yeah it was obvious that he was frustrated he got called for a slash and wanted to make it worth the 2 mins he got. You could say he cost Florida the game there. But with his 2 points on the night, Florida wouldn't even be in OT if it wasn't for him.

Red Wings left the 'Hawks hanging around. Mrazek got sick at the end of the 2nd. Stalock came in, stood on his head, and the the 'Hawks found a way to force OT. Domi got a gift turnover in the neutral zone, and took it in for the OT win. Always good to beat the 'Wings, because, as a Chicago fan, I am reminded of the old chant from the old stadium: "Detroit Sucks!".
