Last night, brothers Matthew and Brady Tkachuk once again showed just how much they are the real deal. On an American team overflowing with pure talent, they were undoubtedly the two players who stood out the most.

Once again, they proved that when it matters, they show up in a big way.

Matthew finished last night’s game against Finland with two goals and an assist, while Brady scored two huge goals.

There is no doubt about it, they were the two best players on the ice last night.

Brady and Matthew Tkachuk send a message to the Canadians

After their easy victory over Finland, the United States is now preparing for their matchup against Canada, a showdown set for Saturday at 8:00 PM.

During a late-night press conference, the Tkachuk brothers set the tone for the game, delivering a clear message: they’ve been preparing for this matchup for almost 10 years.

They are ready, and they’re going to bring the physicality. If Brady had nine hits last night, on Saturday, he wants to triple that. (If not more.)

«This will be the most important game I’ve ever played in my career.»

Brady Tkachuk looks ahead to the USA vs. Canada game on Saturday.

This is shaping up to be a must-watch game, and judging by the Tkachuk brothers’ comments, it’s going to get intense.

They won’t be giving any free passes to Sidney Crosby, Nathan MacKinnon, Connor McDavid, and company.
