One of everyone’s favourite NHL brother duos is celebrating a BIG birthday today.

That’s right, Matthew Tkachuk is officially the big 2 3, which is hard to believe when you consider his resume to date. The Scottsdale native already has 235 points and 293 games played to his name, and is earning a cool $7 million per season. Safe to say his family is pretty proud of him, especially his younger brother and Ottawa Senators stars forward Brady Tkachuk, who took to Instagram to show his appreciation for the dude he grew up playing min-sticks with. Buckle up people because his caption is as wholesome as it gets!

 

You think these two are close or something?

 

We’re not sure if there’s a more fun set of bros to follow than these two beauties. Take Matthew’s text to Brady after the latter’s first fight for example. Who else says this stuff?!

 

We love these dudes. Happy birthday Matt, don’t ever change. That goes for you too Brades.
