Florida Panthers forward Matthew Tkachuk is known as a pest, and that is exactly what he was on Friday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs and Joseph Woll.
Against the
Toronto Maple Leafs, Tkachuk has been a total nuisance, especially around the net. Last night, Joseph Woll got to feel that during an epic Game 6 shutout.
With Woll playing spectacularly, Tkachuk felt as though it was necessary to try and throw the Leafs goaltender off his game, and it led to a pretty sketchy moment.

In a freeze-frame from last night's game, Tkachuk can be seen punching Joseph Woll right in the face as

Woll was pretty unfazed about the whole thing as he kept his cool and just let it happen. He knows the best way to get in Tkachuk's head is by ignoring him.
Besires, Joseph Woll understands that if this team is going to win the series, they will need him to be in top health.
Woll got a huge shutout on Friday night, and if he gets another shutout on Sunday, the Leafs are heading to the Eastern Conference Finals.
The Leafs have not reached this stage of the season since 2002, and if they do, they will play the Carolina Hurricanes, who will come into the series well-rested.
Overall, the Leafs and the Hurricanes had some good matchups this season, and it would make for a very fascinating series.
However, the Leafs have to win Game 7 first, and that is something that has never happened in the Core Four era.
