Globe and Mail sports columnist, Cathal Kelly, wrote an article Tuesday about how likable Brad Marchand is. Toronto Maple Leafs fans will probably disagree, but he makes a few good points.
In response to Marchand’s uncomfortable post-game interview Monday with Sportsnet’s Kyle Bukauskas, Kelly praises him and calls that whole ordeal “something charming” in the face of a league lacking in individuality.
…once they get off the ice, they sound identical. A lot of “pucks in deep” and rapid deployment of some of the least original nicknames since the concept was thought up.
