Brad Marchand puts his hand around Nick Cousins' neck by the benches

[HockeyVirus]

This has got to be a suspension... right? Wild.

Right on the heels of Garland committing the world's first Holding Major, too. Really tone-deaf stuff here from Marchand.

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

Marchand is living my dream.

 

[Esq]

Couldn't have been that hard? Or Cousins likes it rough? Both?

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Sometimes you see something and wonder, "what would make someone do that?"

 

[eviohh26]

Rat boy strikes again!

 

[canadianmagpie]

A dumb move by Marchand?

 

[the valiant effort]

Boys will be boys

 

[Relapsing]

NHL has to issue a suspension here.

That is completely unacceptable from Marchand.

Cousins didn't provide consent.

 

[BLNY]

What did the PoS say to the PoS.

Daddy Brad

Should definitely be a suspension. But the outcome was more of "wtf reaction", so im not entite convinced it will be more than a fine.

 

[Crow]

Why is everything so forcibly homoerotic by Marchand?

 

[VeteranPresence]

Parros will have no choice but to send a message here. Eight game suspension incoming for McDavid.

 

[Wry n Ginger]

Obviously Cousins said their safe-word. I don't see the problem here.

 

[The Expert]

Similar to the choke hold Sacco has Marchand in.

Rat on rat violence

More weird unacceptable shit from the weirdest player in the league. Just really no excuse for this kind of stuff at all, even the absolute worst of the Wilson/Trouba/{insert your rival's pest here} hits have been "hockey plays" to some miniscule degree. The league should have thrown the book at him after the licking incident and they should absolutely do so now.

This is not that serious

 

[Emerica]

kinky

 

[thefutures]

Shouldve tried that on bennet

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

Yah, a move like that quickly leaves the 'hockey sphere' and moves towards general 'assault'. Same as spitting, biting, etc. Scumbag move for sure. Quelle suprise.

I’m with ya- football is just as physical, feelings can get hurt even more, and you know what players don’t do? Lick each other and choke one another, because the league actually handles its shit.

 

[bearcountry17]

Cousins should be fair game for the whole league especially ones with daughters . Pretty sad that teams keep employing this scumbag

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Should have used both hands
