Matthew Tkachuk tries to draw a penalty with an embarrassing acting job

The Florida Panthers are visiting the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight in what had turned into a little bit of a testy game so far, early in the first period.

One of the biggest disturbers in all of sports is up to his old tricks, Matthew Tkachuk this time though was caught trying to embarrassingly draw a penalty, take a look:

Justin Holl and Matthew Tkachuk meet after a whistle, Holl catches the eldest Tkachuk brother in the shoulder and he attempts to sell it as if he was cross checked in the face, dramatically whipping his head back.

Good thing the official was right there and didn't make a call on the play. This is one of the worst embellishment attempts I've ever seen this year.

Most of the time, you want a player like Tkachuk on your team for his ability to get in the other teams head, this is one of those times where as a coach, I bet you just shake your head.
