NHL player safety makes a decision on Matthew Tkachuk being suspended
The NHL player safety has made a decision on Matthew Tkachuk if he will be suspended or not.
Matthew Tkachuk was involved in a controversial incident during game four of the Stanley Cup Finals involving Oilers captain Connor McDavid.
NHL player safety came out and stated that Matthew Tkachuk will not face any discipline and will not be suspended after jumping McDavid and hitting him with some uppercuts.
The Oilers would go on to embarrass the Panthers during game four beating them 8-1, in their previous 3 games the Oilers only managed to score 4 goals and might have finally found a way to beat Bobrovsky and make a comeback in this series.
The Edmonton Oilers still have a big hill to climb back as they are down 3-1, and only one team has ever comeback from being down 3-0 in the Stanley Cup Finals being the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1942.
