 The NHL has its answer to the Kelce Brothers ... minus the whole Taylor Swift thing.

Matthew and Brady Tkachuk announced this week onThe Pat McAfee Show that they’re launching a new podcast called Wingmen, with the first episode hitting YouTube on Thursday morning. The brothers who were both part of the USA Hockey National Team Development Program, and Brady went to Boston University for a season, are currently out with injuries and are expected to return in roughly a month. See Break Away On SI for more.

Thanks to some serious promoting, as the show is produced by through Wave Sports and Entertainment, some clips have already been posted on social media.

Let's just say that no one is going to compare them to the Mannings.
