National Hockey League officials reportedly called the Boston Bruins this month and asked them to tell left wing Brad Marchand to quit licking people, according to an article posted to a Canadian sports news site.
According to SportsNet, “the Bruins got a, ‘we’d prefer if you could tell Brad Marchand to stop licking people’ phone call from the NHL.’’ The reported phone call came after Marchand pressed his mouth to the neck of Maple Leafs forward Leo Komarov during Game 1 of the Bruins’ Stanley Cup playoffs series against Toronto and appeared to lick him.
