Hockey's own Kelce brothers? Brady and Matthew Tkachuk spark fan debate with growing media presence

Matthew and Brady Tkachuk, are drawing comparisons to the Kelce brothers (Getty Images) The Tkachuk brothers are no strangers to the spotlight, both on and off the ice. With Matthew Tkachuk cementing his legacy as a back-to-back Stanley Cup champion with the Florida Panthers and Brady Tkachuk leading the Ottawa Senators as captain, the duo is now drawing comparisons to another famous sibling pair — NFL superstars Travis and Jason Kelce. From EA Sports NHL 26 cover stars to mainstream media figures This summer, Matthew graced the cover of EA Sports NHL 26, with Brady and their father, Keith Tkachuk, joining him on the deluxe edition. For the brothers, it marked more than just a video game milestone. 'I think our 10-year-old selves would be losing their minds seeing that we're on a cover of the NHL game that we loved playing growing up,' Brady said. Tkachuk Brothers spill how the fights in 4 Nations made it out of the group chat & onto the ice Their growing media presence has been hard to ignore. From commercials and TV appearances to streaming projects like Prime Video's Faceoff: Inside the NHL, the Tkachuks are showcasing personality in a sport that often resists individual promotion. Their fiery showing at the 4 Nations Face-Off earlier this year — where both dropped gloves against Canada — only amplified their popularity. Soon after, they appeared on the New Heights podcast with the Kelce brothers, sparking chatter about their own potential media ventures. 'We've gotten a little bit of advice via the podcast route,' Matthew revealed. 'But maybe one day.'
