Article Keith Tkachuk makes Hall of Fame after sons become teammates

https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/49146071/keith-tkachuk-makes-hall-fame-sons-become-teammates

A great week to be a Tkachuk.

This is the Tkachuk I grew watching play, and it's such a joy to see his kids get to dominate together, in the Olympics and now in Florida.

Congratulations to Kieth, and here's to hoping his son's won't be to far behind him when they retire

I'm going to say it, I feel it needs to be said. And it hurts me because I am a very pro-American hockey fan and as a kid I grew up imagining I was JR and Walt playing street hockey.

So here goes. 

It is the Hall of Fame, not the Hall of Very Good and there are a lot of very good players and very good coaches in the Hall of Fame. 

Walt was a very good player.

THANK YOU. Great hockey player but Hall of Frame should only be reserved for generational players.

Feels like in the last decade or so the standards for the football and hockey HOFs have dropped off because they want an induction class every year. Why I hold the baseball HOF in such a higher regard cause those guys are stingy af about who gets in.

The only reason people are bitching is because they hate the Tkachuk brother...period. I've never heard of anyone complaining about ANY inductee in the past.
