Marchand receives high praise from NHL players
The NHLPA released their annual "Player Poll" for the 2021-22 season earlier this year. NHL players from around the league are asked a range of questions from on-ice play, best locations and rinks, and player personalities.
The first question asked was: Which player do you least enjoy playing against but would like to have on your team?
Answers ranged from the super-skilled like Connor McDavid and Sidney Crosby to pests like Tom Wilson. But it was the Boston Bruins leading scorer, Brad Marchand, who won the voting. Probably for his knack for quite frankly doing it all, from the skilled aspect to getting under the opponent's skin.
Marchand is the perfect example of a guy that opposing players and fans hate but would absolutely love to have on their team. It's cool to see the respect that NHL players have for each other, even though fans don't usually get to see it on the ice. Watch the video below to see who had high praise for the Bruins' all-star:
