He seems to be a genuinely good guy off the ice. He played his role as a rat, changed it to elite skills as the game changed (while retaining rat like qualities), and remains the singular individual everyone hates to play against.
I hate the Bruins but I like Brad.
All evidence points to him being a nice guy with a shit poster streak. Yeah he is a rat but like a lovable rat who does funny silly ass pranks and has a heart of gold and I love that for him.
With Marchand in the last year of his contract, gotta wonder if he's got a few more seasons in him. If by chance this is his last season ending off as a 4 nation's faceoff champ is a great send off.
Honestly always hated / loved him. He's never changed and I can't deny that he's a fantastic hockey player - who is good for the game - regardless of how much I mostly hate him! Haha
