This likely ranks among the most awkward experiences in Brad Marchand's NHL tenure. For an extended period, Marchand's Boston Bruins have consistently troubled the Toronto Maple Leafs in the Stanley Cup playoffs, creating an intense rivalry between the two teams. Yet, for Marchand, this must be a mixed experience, considering his childhood allegiance as a hockey enthusiast in Nova Scotia.
In Eastern Canada, many young hockey fans, due to the absence of a nearby NHL team and the accessibility of games on TV, typically supported either the Toronto Maple Leafs or the Montreal Canadiens. Marchand was one of these youths, and when recently queried about his childhood team preference, he was compelled to respond awkwardly, revealing a challenging truth.
"Hi I'm Brad Marchand. My favorite team growing up was the Toronto Maple Leafs."
Clearly, the infamous Bruins Captain was quite mortified to confess this, a factor that greatly enhanced the appeal of the footage.
