Rookie Tkachuk steals Brent Burns' stick and refuses to give it back!

You have to hand it to him, for a rookie in the National Hockey League Matthew Tkachuk is always willing to get into your face or under your skin.

On Thursday night Tkachuk tried to get inside the head of one of the best defensemen in the NHL, San Jose Shark Brent Burns, and he did it in very creative fashion. 

After getting tangled up with burns in front of the bet, Tkachuk skated off with Burns' stick tucked under his arm, and when Burns went to ask for it back Tkachuk was already well on his way back to the Calgary Flames' bench.

Unfortunately for Tkachuk he earned himself a penalty for interference, but he did so in hilarious fashion.
