Brady Tkachuk has been in trade rumours for quite some time, but now his father Keith has opened up on Brady's future with the Ottawa Senators.
The Ottawa Senators have taken a huge leap forward in recent years, ending their Stanley Cup Playoffs drought in 2025, although they would ultimately fall to the Toronto Maple Leafs in round one.
However, they've been improving ever year since Brady Tkachuk took over as captain, as he has become one of the most beloved players on the team by a very loyal and passionate fanbase.
Despite this, Tkachuk has been at the centre of many trade rumours in recent times, with other teams and potential insiders believing that like his brother Matthew, he could be set to depart Canada one day.
Keith Tkachuk shuts down the idea that Brady wants to leave Ottawa
I wouldn't believe everything you hear. I think after what happened with Matthew in Calgary, everyone just assumes that's going to happen with Brady.
But Brady loves it there. Brady has cemented himself in the community, they're a team on the rise. They got a great bunch of young players, they're core players. The fans and the city itself treat him so well. He wants to be a big part of that moving forward, so I don't think he's going anywhere.
While the rumours have been out there, this has been the overall sentiment in Ottawa, with the team thus far being unwilling to even listen to potential trade offers on their captain.
Sure, he's a passionate American that represented the red, white and blue at the Four Nations and will continue to do so moving forward, but given his passion for the Senators and his father's comments, it's safe to say that Brady isn't going anywhere.
