The Tkachuk’s admitted that there could be legitimate heat between USA and Canada and explained there was some genuine hatred going into the gold medal game.<\/p>\n

ESPN’s Emily Kaplan played some comments from the brothers on Sportscenter and it’s started a a whole new discussion online.<\/p>\n

Tkachuk Brothers stoke USA\/Canada rivalry even more<\/p>\n

Brady mentioned how big this game was to everyone involved, meanwhile Matthew decided to leave his comments for after the game.<\/p>\n

Brady talked about how there is some genuine hatred between the two and how for some of the boys in the locker room — there was nothing bigger than this:<\/p>\n

There’s hatred there a lot of guys could say this is the biggest game they’ve ever played in.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, you could tell that Matthew shared the same sentiment as his brother, as he went on a tirade post-game<\/a> regarding how the USA is now the force to be reckoned with in hockey:<\/p>\n

Hockey’s our game. It’s the United States of America’s game. It’s the greatest country in the world.<\/p>\n

Leave it to the two brothers to make a few comments especially after last year when they were so heavily involved in the chaos that was the 4 Nations. Part of the legendary three fights in nine seconds — he’s no stranger to the animosity between the two teams.<\/p>\n

But hearing Tkachuk feel so confident and Matthew seemingly confirming that confident nature, it might seem like a bit of the changing of the guard for international hockey.<\/p>\n

At least, for the next four years.<\/p>\n
