Highlights
  • Ottawa fans brought homemade signs for Brady Tkachuk’s return
  • One sign read “Keith = No Cup, Matthew = No Class, Brady = No Loyalty”
  • Read below for the best signs from Canadian Tire Centre

Senators fans came prepared for Brady Tkachuk’s return, and a lot of the signs went after the whole Tkachuk family.

Our X account grabbed some of the best ones from the glass at Canadian Tire Centre. Take a look at the signs:

The neon yellow one spread the blame around. It read “Keith = No Cup, Matthew = No Class, Brady = No Loyalty. We are better without the Tkachuks!!” Keith is Brady’s father, Keith Tkachuk, so nobody in the family got a pass.

Plenty of fans went after the little brother angle. One pacifier-covered sign said “Little Brother” over a photo of Matthew feeding a baby with Brady’s face. Another said “Baby Brother” with a quote reading “When I grow up I want to be just like Maffew.”

A third showed Matthew and Brady as Panthers babies in diapers with the words “I want my daddy.” The crowd leaned on that one later with its own chant, which we put together with the rest of the night’s insults in our full list of chants.

Signs weren’t the only thing Ottawa brought. Fans also threw Tkachuk jerseys on the ice late in the game, and Brady had already said he planned to donate every one that landed.
