Round 2: Matthew Tkachuk shares glaring details on his rivalry with David Pastrnak

"I go over, and I'm talking to the refs, whatever. Marchand, their captain, is off the ice. So, it's Pastrnak coming over and talking. I'm like, 'Tell your guys to stop being idiots, otherwise I'm coming after you.' We just start talk and talk and talk. Then I'm like, 'Well, let's just fight next shift.' He didn't say no. He wasn't like backing down or scared. A lot of respect for him. I'm not, like, the toughest guy in the world. But I mean, I don't expect a guy like him to fight in general. So, I just leaned over and I asked him to fight. I'm like, 'We're doing this right now. I'm not waiting until next game.'"

"He literally looked to Monty (Jim Montgomery) and asked him. Monty's like, 'You want to?' I'm hearing this whole thing. Pastrnak's like, 'Yeah.' He's (Montgomery) like, 'All right, go ahead.' He (Pastrnak) looks at me like, 'I'm going out next shift -- power play. Let's do it.' I was like, 'I don't PK, but I'll see you out there.' I turned to Paul (Maurice) and I'm like, 'Paul, I'm going out next shift.' I think he was like, 'No, Chucky. It's a PK.' I'm like, 'Paul, I'm going to fight Pastrnak.' He was like, 'All right.'"
