Browsing: Tkachuk

For the next few weeks, Brady Tkachuk will have to sit and watch.

The Ottawa Senators captain spoke on Wednesday for the first time since undergoing surgery on his right thumb.

Although the team has previously given a six-to-eight-week timeline for his return, Tkachuk said he was itching to get back as soon as possible.

“Everything is going in the right direction,” he said. “Today was the first day I started to do stuff, and I feel like that’s going to keep me sane. Whenever the guys are playing and you’re not playing, you always want to be able to go to battle with them, so that’s been the toughest part is not being able to be around in those moments.”

Tkachuk said he would be limited to skating for some time before expecting to be cleared for puck-handling around Week 3 or 4 of rehab.

He added that there is no concern about missing the Olympics, where he was among the first six players named to the U.S. team for the Feb. 11-22 tournament in Italy.

Tkachuk also clarified that the injury was a fully torn thumb ligament. He said doctors said the two-hour operation was successful at the time, which was confirmed in a check-up appointment on Tuesday in New York.

“It’s definitely a tough test mentally, but I think with that is an opportunity to get better because of it,” Tkachuk said. “Stuff like this happens and now it’s an opportunity to find different levels for me as a person and me as a player.”

Tkachuk sustained the injury earlier in October when he was cross-checked five minutes into a game into the boards by Nashville Predators defenceman Roman Josi.

He stayed in the game, a 4-1 loss to the Predators, before leaving midway through the third period, adding that he knew the injury was serious when he fired a shot on a partial breakaway that came out like a “muffin.”

Tkachuk said Wednesday that Josi has since texted him to check in after the play.

“It was nice of him. He didnâ€t have to do that,” Tkachuk said.

Ottawa sits 14th in the Eastern Conference at 2-4-1 entering action Wednesday, an early hole made deeper by Tkachuk’s absence.

But the captain said he’s not worried.

“I have full belief and faith in this group. We’re getting back to our identity,” he said.

The 26-year-old has been a key player for the Senators in recent years. Through three games this season, he had three assists and 10 hits.

Last season, Tkachuk posted 29 goals and 26 assists through 72 games while laying 228 hits and firing 296 shots on goal. He added four goals and three assists in the Senators’ six-game first-round loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs in the playoffs.

Over his eight-year career, all of which has been spent in Canada’s capital, Tkachuk has 191 goals and 216 assists in 515 games.

The Ottawa Senators’ captain will be out even longer than initially expected.

Brady Tkachuk underwent surgery for his right hand injury and will miss six to eight weeks, the team announced on Thursday.

It initially looked as though Tkachuk was set to miss at least four weeks, but with the player opting for surgery, the timeline for a return has been extended.

Senators owner Michael Andlauer told reporters on Wednesday that the team was seeking a second opinion to determine if surgery would be required.

Tkachuk appeared to injure his right hand Monday night when he was cross-checked into the boards by Nashville Predators defenceman Roman Josi five minutes into their game. Coach Travis Green told reporters Tuesday that Tkachuk would be out a “significant†amount of time with what the team was calling an upper-body injury.

He stayed in the game, a 4-1 loss to the Predators, before leaving midway through the third period. Green estimated Tkachuk would be out for four weeks.

The 26-year-old has been a key player for the Senators in recent years. Through three games this season, he has three assists and 10 hits.

Last season, Tkachuk posted 29 goals and 26 assists through 72 games while laying 228 hits and firing 296 shots on goal. He added four goals and three assists in the Senators’ six-game first-round loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs in the playoffs.

Over his eight-year career, all of which has been spent in Canada’s capital, Tkachuk has 191 goals and 216 assists in 515 games.

He was one of six players named to the preliminary U.S. Olympic men’s hockey roster. The tournament in Italy is set to run Feb. 11-22.

OTTAWA — For a long time in the hockey universe, Brady Tkachuk, his Senators and the city of Ottawa were an afterthought.Â

That all changed last season. Tkachuk took part in one of the most memorable fights in hockey history at the 4 Nations Face-Off, scored in the final, dragged his Ottawa Senators to the playoffs for the first time in eight years while being mercilessly booed by Leafs fans. Now, heâ€s one of the stars of Amazonâ€s “Faceoff” documentary and shared the cover of NHL 26 deluxe edition with brother, Matthew, and father, Keith.Â

The goal posts in hockey are the same this season, but they have changed for Tkachuk.

“I think there’s just one goal in mind for everybody in this room, and that’s the Stanley Cup,†he said.

Tkachuk knows he needs to get better for that to happen, from improved conditioning, playing with a cooler head, fighting less and straight up producing more goals and points.

• 32 Thoughts: The Podcast

  Hockey fans already know the name, but this is not the blog. From Sportsnet, 32 Thoughts: The Podcast with NHL Insider Elliotte Friedman and Kyle Bukauskas is a weekly deep dive into the biggest news and interviews from the hockey world.

  Latest episode

In his first game of the 2025-26 season, Tkachuk embodied the drag-my-team-back-into-the-game style, producing three assists on the first three Senators goals — driving a comeback from down 3-1 to eventually winning 5-4 in Tampa. Also, no dumb fights for the captain.Â

“The maturity that we played with really showed. I think there’s times, probably in the past, where we tried to make a play at all costs,†said Tkachuk post-game.

If the captain doesnâ€t panic, the team wonâ€t either.

For the Senators to thrust themselves into the forefront of the NHL, theyâ€ll need to optimize Tkachuk.

His coach thinks he has the tools.

Heâ€s called hockeyâ€s unicorn.

“How many players are like that in the league?†asked Senators coach Travis Green, rhetorically. “If you have another one we can get, Iâ€d love to get him. I donâ€t think we have another 10 other Brady Tkachuks. I don’t think there are 10 others in the league.â€

Tkachuk is a blend of skill, power and fighting, with a vibrant personality. His ultimate attribute is his ability to beat you up in a fight and on the scoreboard. Early in his career, though, he let his emotions get the better of him.Â

To allow Tkachuk to focus on scoring, last week the Senators traded for heavyweight fighter Kurtis MacDermid. In the first game of the season, both MacDermid and Donovan Sebrango fought instead of Tkachuk.

“I feel like (Iâ€m) starting to realize the importance that I have of being out there,†Tkachuk on his evolution on fighting.

“There’s definitely been times in the past where (Iâ€d) lose control of the emotions and snap,†said Tkachuk. He added he’s done “a lot of work (on managing emotions) and trying to stay level-headed and even keel.â€

Tkachuk credited the two fights from his teammates for lifting the teamâ€s spirits against Tampa Bay. Itâ€s not his job anymore.

“I love what he is. I love who he is,†Green said. “Bradyâ€s done a good job at maturing as a player. Being in emotional control. Also, understanding that his play rubs off on other players as well. It’s hard to win in the NHL.â€

Since entering the league in 2018, Tkachuk leads the league in penalty minutes. But last season he fought only five times.Â

With a more grown-up Tkachuk, the Senators are primed to take a run at the Atlantic Division that some consider wide open, given a banged-up, brotherless-for-now Florida, Marner-less Leafs and aging Tampa Bay. Ottawa has every opportunity to seize the moment, and Tkachuk will be the biggest key in a Senators bid to rise up the standings.Â

But, of course, itâ€s not all on him. He has help.Â

“I donâ€t have to feel the need to have the weight on my shoulders,†Tkachuk said.

Part of the success of the Senators last season was that it was the best collection of talent Tkachuk has ever played with in Ottawa, with Jake Sanderson, Tim Stutzle and Shane Pinto taking a leap alongside veteran impact players Linus Ullmark, David Perron and Nick Jensen solidifying the teamâ€s play. The time is now for Tkachuk to win in Ottawa.Â

Despite all the winning in 2024-25, there wasnâ€t a gold medal or Lord Stanley’s cup for Tkachuk. Injuries hampered Tkachuk throughout the season and he finished with only 55 points, his lowest output since 2020-21.Â

To his credit, last season he improved immensely defensively. Tkachuk went from 695th in expected goals allowed at five-on-five in 2023-24 to 128th last season, according to Evolving Hockey. And, donâ€t forget, Tkachuk was clutch, scoring five game-winning goals, including a few down the stretch, notably the overtime winner against the New York Rangers that propelled his team into the playoffs.Â

However, Tkachuk admitted he wore down as the season progressed last year. In the off-season, Tkachuk worked on his conditioning. He now thinks heâ€s in the best shape of his life. Via the eye test, Tkachuk is leaner than last season. Stutzle, the teamâ€s star centre and one of Tkachukâ€s best friends, has noticed a change in Tkachukâ€s accountability, recently.Â

“He’s really taken it to heart that sometimes he’s got to be better,” Stutzle said. “He really did.â€

To win Cups, you canâ€t be 95 per cent in shape.

“I think all you guys know how I play,†Tkachuk said. “Itâ€s pretty demanding, just having the endurance to do it day in, day out, shift in, shift out. Playing with physicality, it takes a lot out of you.â€

Produce, stay conditioned, defend well and donâ€t fight. If Tkachuk does all of that, Ottawa will vault up the standings and deeper in the playoffs.

“Just got addicted to that feeling,†said Tkachuk, about finally playing in consequential games.Â

Meanwhile, off-ice Tkachukâ€s stature is growing, highlighted by the Amazon documentary.

“I’m an open book to begin with,” said Tkachuk about his first episode with brother Matthew.

Many Senators fans enjoyed that Ottawa became front and centre of Episode 1 of “Faceoff” but many were also miffed that the episode wasnâ€t squarely on Brady. Brother Matthew had almost as much airtime as Brady. Matthew is still the big brother on the ice, and off-ice in terms of fan appeal. Nevertheless, Brady got the spotlight, too.

But in Ottawa, Tkachukâ€s charm and warmth has been noticed for a while. Tkachuk signs every autograph he can and has opened philanthropic organizations in the city. In the midst of the tragedy of a diehard Sens fan losing their young child, Tkachuk privately wanted to help. When Tkachuk found out, without any publicity, he contacted the fan to relay his condolences. The stories go on and on.

Ask any Senators fan and Tkachukâ€s approval rating seems close to 100 per cent. He may be the second most-beloved Senator of all time, behind only Daniel Alfredsson.

When Tkachuk returns to Florida to play the Panthers on Saturday, he will have dinner with his brother Matthew to share stories and reconnect. For the first time Brady wonâ€t just be the little brother, heâ€ll be the other Tkachuk superstar.

Welcome to the first edition of ESPN Fantasy Hockey’s four-team mock draft? Yes, four teams. Our servers tell us that a growing number of you are playing in four-team leagues, so we decided to put the challenge to our expert panel to see what their strategy would be, and how their teams turned out.

Our experts also contended with the question that many of you have navigated in your drafts so far… when to draft injured star Matthew Tkachuk.

The Florida Panthers expect to be without Tkachuk (groin) until at least December, and he previously was ranked in the top-10 before the injury was known. If your league has IR spots available, he would be eligible to be placed there, opening up an extra roster spot until he returns.

.

This draft featured the following participants (in order of first-round selection): Victoria Matiash, Pierre Becquey, Sachin Dave Chandan, and Sean Allen. Scoring is ESPN standard H2H points, see the scoring system here. See their commentary below, and then see how each round played out.

It’s your league. Run it how you want.

Choose your league size, customize the scoring and set the rules you want to create the fantasy hockey league you want to play in.

Sean Allen, fantasy hockey analyst: I get it now, the appeal of four-team leagues. Fast draft, every pick a star, no digging through the scraps. I ended up with five of my personally ranked top seven blueliners, including drafting Thomas Harley to a bench spot. Obviously I’ll need these defenders to help prop up a slightly weaker forward group, but to make up for that, I prioritized players who have a high ceiling, rather than safe floor: Macklin Celebrini, Connor Bedard, Dylan Guenther, Wyatt Johnston and Dylan Holloway.

While some of those picks might be a risk over safer options in a standard-sized league, all bets are off in a four-team format. The stats of a replacement level player are through the roof in this format because of the smaller pool of selected talent. Alex DeBrincat, Jordan Kyrou, Nico Hischier and Bo Horvat are on the waiver wire!

Pierre Becquey, fantasy sports editor: I targeted several top goalies because it was a way to build an edge at one of the positions and the draft lent itself to snagging goalies. With a cap of four per roster, having half the top 8 on my squad means I should be able to maximize quality starts every week while streaming forwards and defensemen as I see fit.

I think we were all playing a game of chicken with Tkachuk and this is as far as I was willing to let him drop. He goes straight to my IR, allowing me to pick up another skater and, when he returns I’ve got an extra “first rounder” to deploy for the stretch run and, hopefully, the playoffs.

Victoria Matiash, fantasy hockey analyst: More of a veteran of deeper leagues involving 10-plus teams, I’m a bit blown away by the quality of my roster. And everyone else’s! There’s certainly a fun novelty to challenging a small handful of opposing fantasy managers with my own selected cream versus their also high-quality crop.

Suspecting there might be an early run on top-tier goaltenders, I instead chose to immediately target elite heavyweights up front. MacKinnon, and Pastrnak, and Kucherov, oh my! Now we’ll see if my solid collection of blueliners — fingers crossed Roman Josi remains healthy and active — and group of good netminders can pull their fantasy weight while the best forwards in the biz cook like only they can. I am admittedly bummed about losing out on Tkachuk as an IR stash, waiting one draft round too many.

Staying on top of waiver options, particularly at the goalie position, will be a priority once play gets underway. If one of my full-timers falls flat early, the objective will be to quickly sub-in this year’s Darcy Kuemper or Logan Thompson. Having the likes of Juuse Saros, Thompson, Jordan Binnington, Thatcher Demko, and a self-proclaimed fitter-than-ever Stuart Skinner, available for the grabbing offers safety-net comfort in that regard.

Sachin Dave Chandan, fantasy hockey editor: As with most drafts, I aim to take “best player available” and then figure out positions later on. In doing so this time, I picked perennial fantasy-MVP candidate Connor McDavid as well as a pair of elite goaltenders in reigning top fantasy-point scorer Connor Hellebuyck and Igor Shesterkin. As my forward roster continued to develop, the middle rounds exposed a huge gap in the defenseman available, so I had to reach for five defensemen in my final eight picks — each of whom I would be happy with in a ten-team league.

What I’m most excited about in a four-team league is that every roster spot is going to an all-star quality player, which means higher-scoring matchups. As mentioned by the others, it’s intriguing how many quality starters are left over on waivers.
