Matthew Tkachuk serves notice, may be just out of reach for Buffalo

Matthew Tkachuk

Tkachuk, son of longtime former NHL’er Keith Tkachuk capped off an immense season with two goals, including the Cup-winner in overtime. Sure, the OT winner may have nicked Dvorak on it’s way to the back of the net, but neither player really cared nor did the celebratory Knights.
