(246 posts)I don't think either Tkachuk scrap (Fight 1 and Fight 2) was related to the anthem booing. These 2 often exhibit unhinge-ment in their desire to "win" at hockey. Fortunately or unfortunately, a lot of their schtick produces "winning" results for their respective teams. Putting them together on 1 team and starting the game with both on the same line, hockey fans know they were bursting with adrenaline... again towards a "game win" not to take out revenge over fans booing. I'm not here to defend their pugnacious style of play, though.
Are they MAGA? I do not know, but oddly they each are quite well-spoken in off-ice interviews, surprisingly.
Fight 3 with JT Miller (US) taking a minor bump in front of the offensive crease and then picking a losing battle with Parayko (CA), was just silly "me too" and not too smart. Again, I don't see any tie-in to the anthem reaction from the crowd.
