The Boston Bruins and Chicago Blackhawks faced off in the 2013 Stanley Cup Finals.

Former NHLer Patrick Sharp brought up a fond memory he has of playing against Brad Marchand in that series.

"He does an excellent job of getting underneath people's skin. Played against him in the 2013 final, and he was talking a lot, says anything to get you off your game, even told me my kids were ugly once upon a time."

"And I know he's lying because my daughters are beautiful, but it had me thinking for a while. I only had one kid at the time, I was like, does he know something I don't?"

A classic quote from one of the game's best to another. Obviously, Marchand would never seriously say this to another player, as he's known as one of the best guys off the ice. Still, it's definitely an interesting technique to get another guy off his game.
