Senators' Tkachuk Scores The Knockdown In First NHL Fight

Brady Tkachuk takes exception to a Justin Abdelkader hit and goes right after the Red Wings veteran. The rookie lands a few good shots in a quick scrap, his first NHL fight.

Told y'all Tkachuk boys are money, Everyone saying he was gonna be a bust lmao

[XxCurlyManxX]

Ottawa did the right choice to draft Tkachuk and not pass on the 4 overall pick

Sticking up for a teammate. Thumbs up!

[qshay]

When Brady went down, he hit the ice FACE FIRST, look carefully

[PSonak]

TIL that stepping on a stick=knockdown. Thanks SN!

[cs]

Only knockdown I saw was Tkachuk slamming his own head into the ice lol

[vNasttyy]

Both got a couple good licks in, would say it was more of a draw with Abdelkader falling but still not bad

*Abdelkader slips on stick* TKACHUK SCORES KNOCKDOWN

[iciwiener]

So wasn’t everyone saying Detroit won this last draft by far ? I’m sorry where are Zadina and Veleno now ? 🤔

[kassu_]

He has learned something from his brothers

[sportsfanatic]

Abdelkader slipped on Tkachuks stick and fell. I love the Tkachuk brothers but this was not a take down.

[mikedonofrio]

Hes lucky abdelkater stepped on a stick

[emkbacon]

Can’t believe he hit him while he was down

[grattshockey]

Kotkaniemi can’t do that stuff for sure 😏

[myiataylor]

He only got in 2 hits and they were while he was already down 🤣 to me he took the L

[blackpage]

if Ottawa could land would be that perfect piece.

Brady getting some lowkey upper cuts with the hand he’s holding onto the jersey with

That’s my boy

typical of ottawa fans, just watch the reaction of the first row to a decent scrap from a rookie. one dude gets up and pounds the glass as onlooker are disgusted, wonderful support for a rookie...

[jasontye]

Lol, by knockdown do you mean getting punch in the face and face planting on the ice? If they were skating, Tkachuk would have scorpioned. Otherwise, not much of a fight.

I cant imagine it feels good to bounce your knuckles off a guys helmet
