What a joke. His actions clearly showed intent to injure. Why risk injury to players on the superior team by letting him play in game 5? The NHL does not care about player safety. Tkachuk doesn’t care about a fine.

This is a $28 fine to a person who makes 50K a year.
Fines are dumb at this level.

Wow, that will show him!

At some point these fines have to actually register with players if they want them to have any meaning.

Maybe someone can set up a golf fundraiser for him, he’ll be on the course in 3 days.

Why are these maximum fines so low? They really need to be like 20k minimum
DontToewsM3Bro

Is it just me or have the playoffs been particularly nasty this year, being only round 1…?

Now get Bennett for the cheap stick to the groin play while player was on the bottom of a pig pile too boot.

Dude should have to sit out game 5. He clearly was trying to injure Hathaway.

I’m sure he’s fine scrounging together some pocket change for this as long as he gets to keep being a turd.

Anyone know if he’s going to be suspended? If not, this should make for a very interesting game!

Oh my goodness! He’s not even getting paid for this tournament. Prayers for Matt

NHL really has to raise the fining maximums, and it should be done as a percentage of player salary, not a number. $5K to a guy with a $76M contract is literally nothing. This doesn’t discourage dirty hits in any way whatsoever.

Fucking good.
That’s quite a few mouthguards.
