🎥 🧵
Brad Marchand on the Sam Bennett punch: “He plays hard. He’s an extremely physical player…I think he got away with one, but I’m not going to complain. 💩 happens. It’s part of playoff hockey…”
Marchand cont. “People don’t want to say it, but part of playoffs is trying to hurt every player on the other team, and the more guys you take out, the more advantage your team has. People don’t say that, but that’s just a fact of the game.”
Final clip of thread:
Marchand on the reverse angle of the Bennett hit:
“I think it would’ve been a different story hand that camera angle came out a couple days before, but it is what it is…there’s missed calls and missed situations but that’s part of it.”
