Tkachuk, meanwhile, is a slam dunk to represent Team USA in the 2026 Winter Games. His thunderous performance in the 4 Nations Face-Off makes him a Stars-and-Stripes lock, alongside his brother Matthew.

Team USA stars Matthew and Brady Tkachuk made waves during the 4 Nations Face-Off tournament — both on and off the ice.

The win was the finale of what turned out to be an incredibly popular substitute for the NHL All-Star game. The round-robin tournament put some great hockey on display while reviving the rivalry between the USA and Canada in a non-Olympic year.

The Tkachuk brothers have shown tremendous offensive efficiency in the stat lines. Can they turn that into a win for Team USA?

"Sometimes, when you shoot your mouth off to the media, it bites you," Marchand said after Canada's 3-2 win in the 4 Nations Face-Off final.

"Sometimes when you shoot your mouth off in the media, it bites you," Brad Marchand said of Matthew and Brady Tkachuk.

Matthew Tkachuk said that he wouldn't "want to miss" the finale vs. Canada and that he expects brother Brady to "be at his absolute best."

Canada's Brad Marchand responded to trash talk from Team USA' Matthew and Brady Tkachuk after the 4 Nations Face-Off.

Brad Marchand is not having an easy time this year. In Boston, the Bruins captain is at the center of several rumors. We don’t know if he’ll return with the club this summer and maybe he’ll even be traded in the coming days.
