Brad Marchand under fire after diving in game two
Leaf fans criticized Brad Marchand after a third-period scrum in last night's game, claiming he faked being hurt. Tyler Bertuzzi slashed Marchand, causing him to fall.
However, fans on social media pointed out that Marchand grabbed the wrong leg when he fell, suggesting he exaggerated his injury.
I didn't realize last night, but Marchand gets slashed in the right leg, but grabs his left leg....
He grabbed the wrong leg. 🤣🤣
Despite the debate, a slash is a penalty regardless of its force. Marchand's reaction led to Bertuzzi being penalized.
The incident sparked discussion among fans, highlighting the intensity of the rivalry between the Leafs and Bruins. Marchand's play often draws attention, whether for his skills or controversies.
