News Article: Brad Marchand Named Captain

[Alicat]

Ok maybe not Marchy yet. Monty is speaking now

 

[Ladyfan]

Congrats to Brad He’s learned and grown up under Bergy and Z, will carry the Bruins culture and traditions with pride.

It could not have been anyone but Brad!

I am VERY happy for Marchy and the B's!

 

[McGarnagle]

We've come a long way from I don't undahstand Marshmont

 

[BradMarchandismydad]

I guess I'll have to grab a new jersey then...

Maybe the Centennial Whites.

The away jersey is the cleanest IMO

I'm debating getting Marchand or McAvoy.

 

[DKH]

So obvious and great choice

As a parent you love seeing your kids or their friends (or spouse) develop and mature in front of you

Brad has come a long way since 2010

So deserved

Hey monty made a right call. There is hope.

Yah um, no

 

[GahdenRinkRat]

The video should have had Marchand sewing his own `C` on the jersey

Matt Falconer shown doing his usual excellent job

 

[DKH]

It could not have been anyone but Brad!

I am VERY happy for Marchy and the B!

Yes we discussed this - it would have been a shocker anyone else

Such an honor to someone who’s come from 4th line scrub 20 games 1 assist to a HOF career and captain of the greatest US based team in NHL history

 

[McGarnagle]

I still think we should've taken a page from Coach Prime and rather than captain put a D on his chest for Dawg

 

[Sheppy]

The away jersey is the cleanest IMO

I'm debating getting Marchand or McAvoy.

I have like 20 jerseys and 18 are the blacks, haha.

If I decide to get a jersey I'll go with the Centennial 3rd w/ Marchand.

Marchy is speaking now

 

[jsteelek]

Very happy to hear this! Good choices for the A’s as well.

 

[13Hockey]

Brad is a great speaker
You can tell how much the C means to him

 

[Shaun]

first speech as captain - importance of line changes

 

[Alicat]

 

[jsteelek]

I thought his on-ice antics had calmed somewhat the last couple seasons. The C will help move him along further in that direction

 

[Gee Wally]

He's been a completely different player since that incident and I am confident it will continue.

I think we both knew it could not have been anyone else.

 

[chizzler]

Marchy is speaking now

When they bring back a t 70’s or Neely era jersey, I will wait.

 

[Yeti34]

Great news! Well deserved for Marchy

 

[BiteThisBurrows]

This was my choice so imo Bruins got it right.

Today I'm laughing thinking about all the hater reactions that must be going on with Sabres, Leafs, Habs, etc etc fans all around the league.

It's now the Year of The Rat!

I remember when he first came up from P and played 4th line minutes. I wasn’t sure he was gonna make it, but look where he is now. I’m happy for him - with his hustle, grit and success over the years. He’ll retire as a Bruin , and that is fitting

Duh
