No Additional Discipline For Matthew Tkachuk 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon Apr 28, 2025 5:22 am

Florida Panthers forward Matthew Tkachuk will not receive supplemental discipline for his hit on Tampa Bay Lightning forward Jake Guentzel in Game 3 of their Eastern Conference first-round series, sources told ESPN on Sunday.

Tkachuk received a five-minute major for his hit in the third period of the Panthers\' 5-1 loss Saturday. According to sources, the NHL Department of Player Safety determined that was enough, considering Guentzel had recently touched the puck and Tkachuk didn\'t make contact with Guentzel\'s head.
