Supporters booed the players off the ice and even chanted that they wanted manager D.J. Smith to be fired in the 2^nd period.

Tkachuk shared with the media after the defeat that he is frustrated by that.

“It’s disappointing, and whenever you don’t triumph, it’s that feeling,” the Senators captain claimed. “It’s not great, the negativity from the outside, the booing and the chanting from our fans tonight.”

“I know they’re passionate supporters, and I understand that they want us to win, but when you face adversity, you don’t turn your back on your team.”
