The two best players in the NHL according to Brad Marchand

It's always awesome to see NHL players show respect toward their fellow peers!

Brad Marchand shared his praise for a player the Bruins had to face twice in the last couple of weeks, Nathan MacKinnon of the Colorado Avalanche.

Like Boston, the Avalanche have some elite talent up-front (and on defense for that matter), and Marchand was specifically asked about MacKinnon. According to Matt Porter of the Boston Globe, he even went a step further and shared who he thinks are the top two players in the NHL.

As per Porter:

Huge praise for two guys that very well may be number one and two in the league. Marchand has been around for a long time now, so he knows what he's talking about!

Do you agree?
