Egland scores Teddy Bear Toss goal but Pats lose in OT
8h ago
Over 3,000 stuffed animals were tossed onto the ice.
Brad Marchand took all of 54 minutes of the Boston Bruins season to prove yet again how a great and talented player ruins his reputation by repeated steps back to his status as a rat.
Marchand flipped off his gloves and threw a few punches that bloodied Lars Eller of the Washington Capitals.
Shortly before, Eller offended Marchand’s sensibilities by daring to celebrate a 7-0 goal on a night that had the Capitals raise their Stanley Cup banner, in a stadium that was white hot with elation as the Capitals season couldn’t have gotten off to a better start.
Eller, if you don’t know, is not a fighter. Nowhere close. Perfect prey for Marchand who has fought Steven Stamkos, Roman Josi, PK Subban and Mike Ribeiro in his career.
What a tough guy.
I would have loved to see what he would have done if an actual guy who knew how to throw a punch had scored that seventh goal. Oh, right, it’s Marchand he would have likely slew footed him from behind like the coward he is.
