Andy Strickland just made a major statement regarding a trade involving Ottawa Senators forward Brady Tkachuk, adding more fuel to the fire.

According to him, it is "inevitable" that Tkachuk will eventually leave the Ottawa Senators to play for an American team. (Just like his brother and father did in the past).

Let's not forget that Matthew Tkachuk forced the Calgary Flames to trade him and he ultimately landed with the Florida Panthers. So, don't be surprised if Brady eventually ends up with a U.S.-based team.

Rumors linking him to the New York Rangers, coming from Larry Brooks, now seem to be gaining traction.

Tkachuk, 25, has recorded 44 points in 56 games this season with Ottawa.
