Of all the players, why? Also, why didn’t the NHL do this during the 2 day game break during the 4 Nations?

Publicity for the game. He wouldn't have been my choice either but he's grabs attention

 

[Dirtyclapper]

Ah man this guy is literally the American PK Subban. Just craves attention so much. Maybe good for the game in America but I can't help but cringe every time I see him on some dumb commercial or talking during the game with the NBC broadcasters. Any chance he gets.

 

[kingsholygrail]

He's pretty popular and being injured it's a perfect use of his time.

 

[RedRocking]

G-d forbid a hockey player shows some personality, and is good with the media.

Nah, it’s clearly better to be a perpetual sourpuss like McDavid/MacK, or a weird robot like Makar/Crosby

 

[Breakers]

Brady is soooo gonna ask for a trade

No doubt in my mind

“Craves attention?” He gets paid to be on commercials, and recruited by tv producers to be on late night shows and hockey broadcasts.

It’s not like we’re talking about someone’s attention-seeking social media presence

NHL fans: Players are so boring, they need to show more personality.

*an NHL player shows some personality*

NHL fans: noooooooo NOT LIKE THAT! How could he do such a thing! Give me more robotic players with no emotion who say the same 5 things over and over.

People like you are what's wrong with this sport

IKR. People can be really puritanical about this sort of thing.

 

[aight]

"The Tkachuk's". Related to The Sedin's?

 

[Soundwave]

Can't stand Tkachuk, but this is good for the sport, the Canada-US game was the best thing that's happened to the NHL in ages.

Wow what a hater. Pathetic take bro.

Lots of players show their personalities but aren't cringe. You like him thats fine, I just find it hard to watch

Did you watch the clip? He was soft spoken and talking about nothing but family and hockey intertwined

You can not like him but that's a bullshit take on the above

Yes I did, he talks about the same thing basically every time he's given the mic. How is that "personality". We know your dad is Keith and your brother is Brady.

okay, so it's literally just haterade. Noted.

Maybe not everyone watching Jimmy Fallon knows who Keith Tkachuk is and it’s a worthy story to the common, non-hockey fans? You’re being obtuse.

I can't say Iove Tkachuk but you obviously didn't watch this interview. Guy was talking about his dad tearing up and being able to hand him the Stanley Cup. About as wholesome as it gets.

Fallon asked questions, he answered, he supposed to guide the conversation over the host? Garbage take, this stuff is great for the game.

 

[JoVel]

The Tkachuks made a name for themselves during the four nations. We had freaking politicians praising them on Twitter. Now is the time to cash in on that, because otherwise every non hockey person will forget them in two seconds.

 

[Juniorhockeyguru]

McDavid has the personality of a rock.

 

[teugen]

I can't believe how bitter some of the takes are in here.

 

[Panteras]

McDavid has the personality of a rock.

That’s one hell of an introverted rock then.

 

[the valiant effort]

Game. Grown.

Now you can rest, Gary.
