Florida Panthers and Team USA forward, Matthew Tkachuk, has been making waves in recent days. He has repeatedly taken shots at Team Canada players, displayed an attitude that many have noticed, and failed to back up his own words.

In the past few hours, following Canada’s victory last night, some Canadian players, including Brad Marchand and Brandon Hagel, didn’t hesitate to send subtle shots to the eldest of the Tkachuk brothers.

 

 

But where it gets interesting is when Matthew Tkachuk’s own teammates from Team USA start publicly criticizing his actions and statements.

This was particularly the case with J.T. Miller, a Team USA and New York Rangers forward.

J.T. Miller hated that Matthew Tkachuk talked about their famous group chat

Well, well!

This means that in response to the following revelation:

“Matthew Tkachuk says him, his brother Brady and JT Miller were on a group chat earlier today and decided they wanted to drop the gloves early tonight. [last Saturday night].”

– Pierre LeBrun

 

 

We learned the following:

“There is someone who really didn’t like that all of this got out to the media: J.T. Miller.

In fact, he even went so far as to say that he ‘hates’ that the Tkachuk brothers talked about the group chat and made it public”

– Via Félix Forget’s article

Wow!

“I hate how they talked about the group chat”.

– JT Miller

And you can’t say that Miller said this out of frustration from last night’s loss because he made this statement before the game.
