Matthew Tkachuk brutally calls out the Maple Leafs after elimination
It's been a wild day for the Toronto Maple Leafs after they lost Game 7 against the Boston Bruins. Now they're out of the playoffs, and it's not just the Bruins poking fun at them. Florida Panthers forward Matthew Tkachuk also chimed in on Toronto's loss.
According to Sportsnet's Jori Negin-Shecter, Tkachuk didn't hold back when he talked about who he thought would win. Many fans probably agreed with him.
Tkachuk: Without this coming out too badly, I think we all knew it was probably going to Boston the way that series was going...I think throughout the whole series we were probably expecting they were going to come out and win it one way or another.
Tkachuk is known for speaking his mind, but he might be making it sound too simple. The Leafs had fought back from a 3-1 series deficit to take the game to overtime. Boston looked like they were in trouble, but they got a lucky break in overtime and won.
Given the Leafs' history of playoff struggles, perhaps Tkachuk was right. He's known for stirring things up, and this time, he's just doing what he's known for. Now, the Leafs have to deal with another tough playoff exit while Tkachuk keeps the conversation lively.
