WINNIPEG \u2013 Matthew Tkachuk\u2019s generosity is unmatched.<\/p>\n
Dishing the biscuit with skill and precision, the superstar winger recorded four assists while helping lead the Florida Panthers to a 5-1 win over the Winnipeg Jets at Canada Life Centre on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Moving into a tie for second in the NHL with 16 assists this season, Tkachuk has become just the third player in Panthers history to register at least 16 helpers in a single month.<\/p>\n
\u201cHis hands are just world class, and they always have been,\u201d head coach Paul Maurice said.<\/p>\n
Only two weeks removed from a five-assist performance in a 7-3 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Oct. 13, Tkachuk is the second Panther to post multiple games with at least four assists in a single season \u2013 and there\u2019s still 71 games left to add another.<\/p>\n
Of his 16 assists this season, eight have been primary.<\/p>\n
Locking in the 5-1 win over the Jets, Tkachuk’s pinpoint pass to set up his brother, Brady, for a goal is worth multiple viewings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WINNIPEG \u2013 Matthew Tkachuk\u2019s generosity is unmatched.
