Matthew Tkachuk Clowns Bruins With One-Liner
One of the most astonishing upsets in NHL and professional sports history unfolded last spring when the Boston Bruins, boasting 65 wins, were toppled in a thrilling seven-game series by the Florida Panthers. The Panthers, who barely secured a playoff spot and were deemed massive underdogs, defied the odds.
Matthew Tkachuk, a standout forward, played a pivotal role in Florida's triumph. Tkachuk not only shone on the scoresheet but also frustrated the Bruins with his physicality and persistent presence in front of goaltender Linus Ullmark. His clutch overtime goal in Game 5 initiated the comeback from a 3-1 series deficit, and he concluded the series with an impressive 11 points.
The upcoming Boston Bruins roster will bear little resemblance to last season's powerhouse, with key departures including Patrice Bergeron, David Krejci, Tyler Bertuzzi, Dmitri Orlov, Taylor Hall, Tomas Nosek, and Nick Foligno. In anticipation of the 2023-24 season, Tkachuk playfully teased the Bruins:
"I'm excited to see what Boston does after their season last year, how they follow that one up,"
Tkachuk quipped during the NHL player media tour in Vegas when asked about his anticipation for the new season.Tkachuk's inaugural season with the Florida Panthers, following a blockbuster trade from the Calgary Flames, saw him excel as the team's MVP, tallying 40 goals and 69 assists.
