In the heat of Game 3, Brad Marchand was the hero for the Boston Bruins, netting two crucial goals in their matchup against the Toronto Maple Leafs. His standout performance pushed the Bruins ahead, giving them a 2-1 series lead.

Marchand, never one to hide his emotions, made waves with a comment he allegedly hurled at the Maple Leafs' bench after scoring. Witnesses claim he boasted,

implying the Bruins would clinch the series in just five games.

However, there's some debate about what he really said, with another version suggesting he was merely noting,

in reference to the remaining time in the game.

This incident has stirred up plenty of chatter among hockey fans and has seemingly lit a fire under the Maple Leafs. With determination fueled by Marchand's words, Toronto is gearing up for a pivotal Game 4 on their home ice, looking to pull the series back to an even keel.
