Evan Bouchard wasted a beautiful reverse check on Matthew Tkachuk by immediately following it up with a cheap shot to his face. Two minutes for being stupid.
Tkachuk knows how to game the system…he is usually the one with the cheap shots to the face (look at all the luxuries he took punching/cross checking McDavid in the head last game = no call btw)…he embellished big time and got the call…dumb on Bouch for sure and yes a penalty in the end
Should have gotten an embellishment and done but the officials need to be sat down this summer and all taught consistency! I did not know Florida wanted the reputation of being so dramatic to get calls but I guess whatever it takes, it’s working.
I dont like that call, Matthew Tkachuk plays that way and in my opinion Bouchard was sticking up for himself. It wasn’t a brutal hit, it was just playoff hockey. Then Bouchard has to follow through and do that extra push and that’s where the penalty comes from and for this I totally agree, once again refs make a good call. Tkachuk did make it look a little bit more painful then it was though.
Poor Poor Florida Actors ….Always remember if you play against a Florida Team there are always 7 people on the ice that are against you 5 + 2 refs for those that need it explained ….🇨🇦

bit of a sell job by Tkachuk but after the no call last game, kinda owed
As Viva Pinata would say. "That was acting children! Bravo for me!"

OMG but no delay of game against florida in 2 period.
Well you can’t forearm a guy when he doesn’t have the puck. TAKE THE HIT or MOVE THE PUCK!
Bullshit tkachuk is one of the best divers in the league,which also makes him the most pathetic 🤡 ever.
Look wink to ruff,fix, gameing!😈
Another one you should've added a comment to imo.

Tzturtle sells another one and the refs take the bait ! this is getting very old and predictable.
One word, embellishment
Oh the horror
WILL TRADE OFFENSIVE DEFENSE-MAN FOR SOMEONE WHO CAN PLAY HOCKEY
The Panthers should rename themselves the Divers.
Butt end

Isnt diving a Olympic sport?
So soft. Barely touched him with a fabric glove
It amazes me how easy he falls for such a big dude – maybe he's watching too much soccer??
This call in final. What a joke It s still hockey or soccer?
Wow another dive by florida. This whole team dives everytime you get close to them. I mean bobrowsky is the worst one of them all
Maybe it would hurt less if he actually wore the mouthguard
