Embarrassing moment as Brad Marchand executes a blatant dive

Brad Marchand continues to play his role against the Toronto Maple Leafs perfectly as he shows a dive late in game two of the Boston/Toronto series.

Marchand has made a career out of being a player that can get under the skin of his opponents. This does not let up in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, if anything it amplifies, and most of the time he succeeds in finding a way to being the most hated guy on the ice.

Marchand is coming off of his first season as being the Captain of the Boston Bruins and he has kept consistent with most of his career. Marchand posted 29 goals and 67 points in all 82 games of the season, while maintaining his "rat" title amongst the league. He is truly a guy you wish you had on your team but hate to play against him.

In game two in the Boston Bruins first round series against the Toronto Maple Leafs, Marchand took a huge spill after a mild chop at the backside of his legs coming from former teammate, Tyler Bertuzzi. Here is the video of the altercation from user, TicTacTOmar on X,




This does not take away from the fact that this is shaping up to be a great series and that Marchand has been playing a key role for this Boston Bruins team. Game three will take the series back to Toronto, on Tuesday at 7:00 PM E.T.
