Brad Marchand is one of the most polarizing figures in the NHL due to his emphatic personality, on and off the ice, and it hasn't gone unnoticed by his hockey peers.
Maintaining His Position at the Top
The NHLPA released its annual Player Poll on Wednesday morning, a the Bruins veteran reclaimed his familiar top spot in a specific category:
''Which player do you least enjoy playing against, but would like to have on your team?''
Marchand unsurprisingly ranks first again with 36.5% of the votes from fellow NHL players. The rest of the top-five ranks as follows:
2nd - Connor McDavid (15.6%)
3rd - Tom Wilson (8.1%)
4th - Matthew Tkachuk (6.0%)
5th - Victor Hedman (3.9%)
The 34-year-old continues to terrorize his opponents physically and mentally, while filling up the scoresheet at the same time. Through 62 games this season, Marchand has registered 20 goals and 42 assists.
