Brady Tkachuk Joins Brother in Florida

Brady Tkachuk’s blockbuster trade to the Florida Panthers reunites him with his brother Matthew, a rare NHL move driven purely by family. After signaling he’d leave Ottawa post-season, Brady narrowed his trade preferences to just one team — Florida — because he wanted to play alongside his sibling. Ottawa GM Steve Staios called it the best deal possible, sending three first-round picks and a second-rounder in return, plus a top-ten protected pick in 2029. Brady still has two years left on his contract with an option to extend. This mirrors Matthew’s 2022 trade from Calgary — another family-first NHL decision that reshaped roster dynamics.
