The task has just gotten harder for the Panthers. No Tkachuk in the line up. We will see how they respond.

He got hammered by an open-ice hit a couple of games ago.

I would bet a separated shoulder or fractured ribs, especially based on watching his skating.

Ya I know it's from the hit but I'm curious if it's a shoulder thing and he needs surgery or ribs, concussion etc... Either way it's gonna be something real extreme that is wrong

Playoffs warrior Matthew Tkachuk - the kind of players you WANT on your team if you want to win - gives up on his team like a little baby because he doesn't want to see his opponents hoist the cup in front of him.

I doubt a concussion, or else he probably would have been out for the last game.

I think it is a structural injury of some sort, and he simply can't use his body in a functional way.

Tkachuk is many things, but a quitter he is not. Dude is ultra competitive.

It speaks more to how bad the injury renders him unable to play rather than Tkachuk's character.
