Monty: "Between Marchy & I, there didn't need to be a conversation. He & I are both emotional people. I'm not ecstatic w/myself about it, but I don't think about it afterward & neither does he He's a pro & a great player that does so many things.
Well now the captain himself has issued a statement following their morning skate regarding the altercation, and he basically said the same thing, backing up his head coach, and even stated that there would have been a problem if he didn't call him out after his sloppy play that led to a goal.
Brad Marchand on reaction to the bench incident with Jim Montgomery in Utah: "That's a thing? People are very sensitive these days. It's unfortunate how coaches are scrutinized for things like that. There's a lack of accountability nowadays because people can't handle the heat"
Brad Marchand was happy that Jim Montgomery called him out and made him take accountability for what he did wrong during that play.
