Tkachuk Scores, Bloodied by Hit, Denounces AI Video in Busy Return

Ottawa Senators captain Brady Tkachuk, a Team USA gold medalist, scored the opening goal in Thursday's 2-1 OT loss to Detroit. He was later bloodied by a hit from Simon Edvinsson, resulting in a 10-minute misconduct penalty for chirping. Tkachuk also denounced an AI-generated White House video that falsely depicted him making disparaging remarks about Canadians, stating it was 'clearly fake' and not his voice.
