Matthew Tkachuk Takes a Shot at a Canadian Forward and Sends a Clear Invitation
Team USA forward Matthew Tkachuk is already stirring things up ahead of Thursday night's highly anticipated matchup against Team Canada.
Clearly looking to "cause trouble," he publicly responded to Canadian forward Brandon Hagel, who had just made the following statement:
"What happened at the start of the game (last Saturday), I did it for the flag and not for the cameras.
We are all united under the same cause.
We want to win for our country, and we are ready to do whatever it takes to come out on top.
We don't need to send messages to each other to decide what to do. We simply do what needs to be done.
We don't need a group chat to tell us what to do."

Matthew Tkachuk responds arrogantly to Brandon Hagel
To this, Matthew Tkachuk just fired back in a rather arrogant manner.
"Maybe their team doesn't like each other if they don't have group chats..
Our team doesn't care about what they say. We don't give a damn about them."
- Matthew Tkachuk, who then went on to directly send a message and an invitation to Brandon Hagel.

It's clear that these are two teams that don't like each other, and tomorrow's game is shaping up to be intense.
Tkachuk, in particular, has never hidden the fact that he doesn't like Team Canada and wants absolutely nothing to do with that team.
What is your final prediction for the game?
