It’s been close to 10 years since we had true best-on-best international hockey being played.
The Tkachuks are those guys.
They are relentless rats.

They are maniacal menaces.
They are diabolical demons.
Well you knew they were only going to dial it up a few notches and completely takeover.

Obviously these guys were going to set the tone with the rough stuff.
This is where the Tkachuk’s game starts to really rev up.
You see Canada scoring powerplay goals in the first minute of the game the other night against Sweden.

The Tkachuks need to put somebody through Earth’s crust before they feel like the game has actually started.
The Tkachuks thrive once the game gets physical.
The live to put bodies on the ice, and pucks in the back of the net.
But 4 combined goals out of Brothers Tkachuk in this one.
5 total points between both of them in a 6-1 win.
Doesn’t matter if Matthew is a Stanley Cup Champion.
Doesn’t matter if Brady is the captain in Ottawa and still has a playoff push ahead of him.
The Tkachuks are American Hockey.
Piss and vinegar, but with a ridiculous amount of skill thrown in there as well.
God these guys rule.
And to think that it’s all thanks to the big fella having unprotected sex a couple of times.
Something tells me the tank is still going to be overflowing.
