Lindsay, who’s battling both leukemia and liver cancer, flew in from NY for the game after changing her chemotherapy and radiation appointments.
She’s here for the Rangers but did tell me she’s a Matthew Tkachuk fan… and he gave her a puck!
Tkachuk on FLA being in EDM's shoes last season:
"I was pretty angry playing against Vegas the first time last year. There was nothing you could do about the year before, but they took away your dream basically. ... I expect tonight will be a very, very intense game."
Tkachuk on tonight’s post-Cup rematch with the Oilers:
“It was such a hard-fought series. … Great memories, kind of the time of our lives. It’s great coming back here.”
“The fans were in it all night so it was awesome for us,” - Matthew Tkachuk chats with @KatieEngleson on the role the crowd @AmerantArena played tonight & more following the #FlaPanthers win.
Now sharing a record with dad, Keith, was the 🍒 on top of a 🔥 week for Matthew Tkachuk.
