Panthers Fear Matthew Tkachuk's Season Could Be Over After Four Nations Injury, Says Insider
During last night's Montreal Canadiens game against the Ottawa Senators, broadcast on TVA Sports, journalist Renaud Lavoie had an update. He shared new information about American forward Matthew Tkachuk, and the news is not good in his case.
We know that Brady Tkachuk also missed his game last night against the Montreal Canadiens, but in Matthew's case, it seems much more concerning.
His season could literally be over.

Watch his full statement right here.
"I want to talk to you about something very important in the National Hockey League.
We saw Matthew Tkachuk get injured during the Four Nations Faceoff..
Now, we are awaiting very important medical results from the Panthers' side because there are reports that his season might be over.
We don't want his season to be over, but there is currently a certain level of concern surrounding Matthew Tkachuk, so the next few days will be very, very, very important for him.
We know the Panthers played this afternoon, and Matthew was obviously not on the ice."
Renaud Lavoie, on TVA Sports
This will definitely be something to keep an eye on, and as Maxime Truman rightly points out, this is not good news for those, like myself, who hope to see more editions of the Four Nations Faceoff in the coming years (or any other similarly competitive event).
"The Panthers will clearly side with the Bruins when it comes to replacing the All-Star Game with who knows what in 2027."
- Max Truman
It's also worth noting that, in the case of the Boston Bruins, they have lost their star defenseman Charlie McAvoy, also due to an injury suffered during the Four Nations Faceoff.
