Matthew Tkachuk: ‘We Really Pride Ourselves on Being True Americans that Would Do Anything It Takes for this Country to Win’

EXCERPT:

M. TKACHUK: "Yeah, it’s been insane. I don’t even know how many hours it’s been so far, but you win, you celebrate with family and friends in Milan, then we're flying back first thing in the morning. Then we're in Miami. We’re supposed to be in New York. Now we're here in D.C. and we're going to the State of the Union tonight. It’s absolutely insane. But we deserve it. We really pride ourselves on being, you know, true Americans that would do anything it takes for this country and to win, and I’m so proud of the guys and I’m so proud to be able to compete with them."
