There was a lot of optimism heading into training camp that the Senators and Brady Tkachuk would hammer out a new long-term contract. Some even thought that maybe a bridge deal would be a reasonable fallback plan to avoid missing training camp, but Matthew Tkachuk killed that idea.
“He might be pulling a classic Tkachuk right now. Dad held out, Matthew held out, and Brady looks like he’s on his way right now,” Matthew said on the 31 Thoughts podcast. “So hopefully it can get figured out here.”
“It’s just a lot of fake stuff out there regarding this,” he revealed.
