Brady Tkachuk and Matthew Tkachuk to attend their father’s Hall of Fame induction

Florida Panthers teammates Matthew Tkachuk and Brady Tkachuk plan to be in Toronto on Monday when their father, Keith Tkachuk, enters the Hockey Hall of Fame. The Florida Panthers have the day off, giving both forwards a chance to attend, the team reported.

Matthew told the Panthers he still hears stories about his father from arena staff, coaches and former teammates on the road. He said he was looking forward to seeing people from different parts of Keith’s career together in one room.

Brady told the club that growing up around his father gave him a firsthand example of how to carry himself as a teammate and captain. Matthew summed up the lesson: “You have to be an amazing teammate.”

Keith scored 538 goals and added 527 assists in 1,201 NHL regular-season games. His selection was announced in June, one day after Florida acquired Brady from Ottawa to join Matthew.

The induction ceremony starts at 7:30 p.m. ET. NHL Network and TSN 4 and 5 will carry the broadcast at 8 p.m. ET.
