Say what you want about millionaires and billionaires deserving to die, but that 19-year old kid who died likely only went to make his father, a Titanic enthusiast, happy because it was Father's day. And he reportedly told at least one person he was "terrified" about going.

And personally, I think that's heartbreaking and awful. Poor kid never deserved that.

Keith & Chantal Tkachuk on how Matthew & Brady's vibrant personalities stem from colourful St. Louis roots

It is an attitude and household like theirs in suburban St. Louis that has produced one of the league’s most colourful players off the ice, and one of the most entertaining players on it.

“I assume Brady is the off-ice one and Matthew is the on-ice one?” said Keith, laughing.

Brady’s infectious personality has been on display via several renditions of "Mr. Brightside" posted online by fans thrilled to see him letting loose in local establishments.

The toolkit Matthew has used to become one of the more polarizing and prolific 100-point scorers includes an innate ability to agitate while dazzling with memorable, between-the-leg finishes.      

In a league full of beige, both engaging, natural leaders stand out. 

Brady, captain of the Ottawa Senators, became a folk hero in Calgary last spring with his double-fisted celebrations in support of his brother’s playoff run.

Matthew, an alternate captain for the Florida Panthers, single-handedly resurrected the Battle of Alberta with a series of hits on Zack Kassian he punctuated with, “If he doesn’t want to get hit, then stay off the tracks.”

And the hits just keep on coming, from both.

“They’re not boring like a lot of guys in the NHL, tell ya that much,” said Keith, who was one of the more personable players of his era.

“I think it’s good they have a personality. It’s good for them, it’s good for the league, good for the team and it’s good for you guys. 

“You don’t want to talk to boring guys with programmed answers.”

Keith said he remembered watching Matthew on the After Hours segment on Hockey Night in Canada as a rookie, conducting the whole interview with his head down.

“I said, ‘What are you doing? Get your head up and talk,’” said Keith.   

“But now it’s like this (as he snaps his fingers).

“I watched Matthew interviewed last night and he was pretty good. He adds some normal stuff to it that people like. It’s not about the same answers. He does a good job.

“I think it’s being around the locker room for a long time, being comfortable.”

Both Tkachuks are armed with tremendous confidence, no doubt cultivated while growing up at their father’s knee in NHL dressing rooms. 

They’ve honed their interview skills under the glare of demanding Canadian hockey markets where all eyes are on their every move, and they know it.

Yet, they continue letting their personalities shine though.

Brady certainly does that well with a microphone in his hand, belting out The Killers’ anthem like he did just a few weeks ago when a fan posted him performing with teammates.

“The good news is every time he does it, he’s with his fiancée, so it’s not like he’s out by himself,” said Keith.

“If you were in Phoenix or New York no one would care, or know you. But you’re in Canada, so I just told him, you’ve got to be careful.

“It’s not like he’s being a goofball, idiot, drunk. He’s not like that. He just turned 23 years old, but he thinks like a 16-year-old. 

“He just likes to have fun.”

Sure, it’s all good fun like he’s had for years in his parents' basement with friends and family.

“He has a contagious personality – he always has a smile on his face, seems to be in a good mood and is fun to be around,” said Mom, sharing her theory on why his song is the Killers’ classic. 

“I think that’s just a popular college song – a fun song that the kids go crazy over.

Draft parties, grad parties, Christmas parties, you name it, the Tkachuks want to ensure everyone is included, as they value the importance not only of teammates bonding, but the spouses as well.

“One of the best parties was an Easter party we had one of the last years Keith played – we had the whole team over and we got this huge Easter bunny costume and Matthew got into it,” said Chantal, who Keith calls Julie McCoy, the cruise director from Love Boat.

“Matthew was about 12 and he just nailed it, holding the kids’ hands.

“All the moms were oohing and ahhing over how great an Easter bunny he was.

“Honest to god, I still get random texts from moms who said, 'That was just the best.'”

“They like the wine cellar and the scotch,” said a smiling Keith, who taught both his sons to revere their team’s support staff.

“I know what it felt like to be a young guy and not having anywhere to go, so I think it’s important to have that open-door policy.”

That policy extended to the family basement, where current Blues star Robert Thomas lived his first two years in the league before renting Matthew’s St. Louis home this fall.

Keith has three TVs mounted in the basement so he can watch Thomas and both of his sons at the same time. After games, Keith would take on a fatherly role with Thomas and wait up for him to get home to share thoughts on his performance.

I found it. My favorite thing ever said about Voldo. That last question right there. Dated: April 20, 2000. Well, my guess is that at the time, Falwell was stirring up a moral panic over that one Teletubby’s handbag. (I’m not joking.)

The “behemoths” are the “less human” characters Astaroth and Nightmare, whom the author of this article considered “more interesting”, by the way.

A recent video featuring Matthew Tkachuk, his father Keith Tkachuk, along with Noah Hanifin and Keith Yandle, showcases a special instance of bonding over a unique activity known as a "shot ski."

The video captures a heartening shot ski session that brings together the love for winter sports and the shared spirit of fun.

In the heart of the video, we witness a jovial scene as the four hockey personalities line up, each holding onto the shot ski. For those uninitiated, a shot ski is essentially a ski equipped with multiple shot glasses.

In this instance, four individuals gather together to partake in the jovial activity. Matthew Tkachuk, the leader behind this fun activity, takes the lead, counting down with an infectious grin: "3, 2, 1."

As the countdown concludes, all four of them simultaneously raise the shot ski to their faces, each taking a shot in perfect synchronization

However, the shot ski experience isn't without its fair share of whimsical outcomes. For those unfamiliar with the activity, there's a charming element of unpredictability.

If any participant fails to drink their shot entirely, it can lead to an amusing display as the contents of the shot glass sometimes end up on their face—a mishap that often results in contagious laughter.
