I don't think anyone should be surprised at this- he clearly wasn't the Riley Nash of the regular season after that
I was thinking the same thing. Marchand is a smart guy, he knows the right things to say to do some damage control. But I'm not giving him the benefit of the doubt until I actually see the change.
That’s what I was thinking. I’d wager there is a team out there that will offer him 3 or 4 years though. He’s be nuts not to take it
I'm right there with you. Like I said if he cleans his act up I will happily eat a large plate of stone cold crow but I really doubt he can change.
Broken finger and shoulder injury as Alicat already posted... Makes his work on Matthews and Stamkos lines that much more impressive, at least to me.
That's a tough one to be effective with, especially for a defenceman who relies on using that top hand so much.
Hockey players have to be some of the toughest competitive athletes in any sport. The pain and discomfort that the players endure in their quest for the Stanley Cup is second to none. Many of the injuries documented today would have us, couch potatoes, on the couch for weeks if not months.
