Matthew Tkachuk A Game-Time Call Thursday
2 years agoFlorida Panthers right wing Matthew Tkachuk is battling an illness and could miss Thursday's clash with Pittsburgh. The team officially regards him as a game-time decision. Tkachuk has exploded for 10 points in seven December appearances, and it's been a superb year overall for him with 14 goals and 25 assists in 28 appearances. His presence would definitely be missed on Thursday, although Carter Verhaeghe (illness) is on track to return to action and wouldn't be a bad replacement for Tkachuk on the first line.
