Matthew Tkachuk Helping Out Brother Brady With Contract Negotiations

The Ottawa Senators are trying hard to sign Brady Tkachuk and not only are they dealing with his agent, turns out Dad, Keith and older brother, Matthew are involved.

Both father Tkachuk and older brother Matthew have extensive experience when it comes to contract negotiations and the Flames forward recently opened up about how and why he's involved:

Word is an 8x8 contract has been discussed, but the reports of a deal being close, apparently according to Matthew are not true. Look for the Senators to send over an offer Brady can't refuse in the coming days as the team wants to have one of their core pieces in place for opening night of the 2021-22 season.
