Brad Marchand calls out Tkachuk brothers after defeating Team USA in Four Nations final
Boston Bruins captain Brad Marchand took a shot at the Tkachuk brothers last night after defeating Team USA in the Four Nations tournament.
Team Canada proved their dominance once again last night as they took home the Four Nations trophy in a exhilarating 3-2 overtime win over the Americans.
It was obvious how much the game meant to the players on both teams based on their reactions immediately after Connor McDavid scored the winning goal.
Of course, in addition to the trophy, the Canadian players now have eternal bragging rights over their American rivals.
Notorious Canadian forward Brad Marchand used the victory as a moment to sound off on Matthew and Brady Tkachuk, who were trying to get under their skin with comments about the state of Team Canada's locker room.
Marchand was responding to a comment made by Matthew Tkachuk, who insinuated that the Canadian players did not like each other because they didn't have active group chats.
"Well, I mean, maybe their team doesn't like each other if they don't have group chats. I think that's just a player enjoying his opportunity.
I think that our team does not care about anything that they say, and there's been a lot of chatter and talk from individuals, but we care about one thing in this room, and we have millions of people that are watching us and supporting us around this country, and we're very prideful in playing for them and the guys in the room. It's an opportunity of a lifetime for us."

Matthew's brother Brady did score in the game, tying it at 1 a piece int he first period, but obviously it was not enough to get his team over the edge.
Meanwhile, Matthew himself played less than 7 minutes in the game as he appeared to reaggravate a lingering groin injury, recording just one shot on goal.
He was on the ice for his Brady's goal, but other than that, his impact on the game was negligible at best.
