Brad Marchand embodies the love-hate relationship in hockey. As the Bruins' captain, he's known for his skill, toughness, and knack for pushing boundaries. In game two against the Toronto Maple Leafs, Marchand showcased his trademark style.

During a tense moment late in the game, Marchand theatrically hit the ice after a minor altercation with Maple Leafs' Tyler Bertuzzi. It was a classic Marchand move, exploiting any opportunity to gain an advantage.

However, it's worth reminding Marchand that hockey isn't soccer, and theatrics aren't appreciated on the ice. Actions like these don't go unnoticed, and retaliation is always a possibility in this sport.

Let's be clear, Marchand's talent is undeniable, earning him praise and accolades throughout his career. But moments like this make one question if the risk is worth it.

After the game, Bertuzzi didn't hold back in expressing his feelings towards his former teammate.
