I met Brad in Montreal, in 2016. He was not only very kind, but he also was very generous with his time. After 10 minutes of talking, it's one of the trainers that told him reporters we're waiting to see him. He looked at us and said, time to smile for the camera. First class gentlemen Brad ✌🏿✌️👍🏻👍🏿🇨🇦
My friend’s parents used to live next to Marchand in the north end and said he was the friendliest neighbor they ever met and a great family man. Despite his occasional antics on the ice, the guy is truly an elite superstar talent in his own right.
People don't realize that he's just awful on the ice to get under the skin of other players and throw them off their game; I think him and coaches have admitted it before, off the ice he has the true heart of an east coaster thats for sure
@@Jontism exactly, he does his job great! People get too caught up in thinking you're the sane person on and off the ice, but these people never played any type of competitive physical sport in their life!
To be perfectly honest, I did NOT know about this with Marchand, and just judged him to be the same off the ice. I admit, I am humbled that I judged wrong. Thank you, Delta, for this. I really appreciate this video!
i thought he was an asshole because of the clips of him licking players and sometimes doing shitty plays on the ice, but this video proved me wrong, he's actually a chill dude.
Just cause you’re a prick on the ice, doesn’t mean you’re not a nice guy off it and vice versa. Edit: Unless you’re Sean Avery, then you’re a douche everywhere
Brad is a man who obviously has his priorities straight on the ice he performs at a high level and doesn’t shy away from the grit and fire that he’s a main part of and away from his agitator gifted hockey player role in life he is a complete well rounded individual much respect to this person for having a true character with compassion and humility ✌️
I half agree with you... I am a Flyers fan and absolutely hate him on the ice but acknowledged his skill level. I would not want him because of the cheap shots and antics that tarnish his reputation. None the less he is the definition of leave it on the ice.
He's an instigator, that's a really good player and he adds that dirty play element that adds some toughness to a team. He's like hockey's Bill Laimbeer
Damn you’re making me like Marchand, in all seriousness the guy is a prick on ice but reading about him off the ice he seems to be one of the nicest human beings you could meet. Though it would never happen i’d love to see him suit up for the Leafs
There's a video from a while back where a reporter is pranking leafs fans by saying Marchand was traded to the leafs, and getting their reactions. It's funny how many people were visibly angry about it.
Marchy he's one of the best kept secret in the NHL, I would take him on my team anytime, hes a leader, one the best player in the game! And he cares about the fans.
@@Nigh_Ga Hes absolutely a pest on the ice and that's why us boston fans love him. Hes also a great guy off the ice who cares about the fans and leaves it all on the ice
I never had any doubt he’s a good guy, he’s just like a wwe wrestler, he does his job when it needs to be done, but every time else, he’s just a normal, good guy
Hockey players in general are some of the nicest, humble people you will meet. Most of them grew up on farms or were poor. They never forget there struggle and where they came from. That's why they feel very fortunate and remain humble. I'm in the entertainment business and years ago, did a party at Corey Schneiders house in NJ. The whole Devil team was there. All were gentleman and very respectful. I did NYR parties in NY and met the young players and oldest Veterans.They were all the same great people. Some may come off as tough guys but deep down, they are all outstanding people.
Indeed. Absolute beast on the ice too. Man I need me a hockey hubby. Dream on Rose Dream on. Like that’ll ever happen 😂 my love life is a joke. No one wants someone with mental and emotional disabilities not to mention I have autism. Also I’m like a 2/10😂😂😂😂 and I play hockey. I don’t think guys who play hockey like girls who play hockey 😂
@@rosethefirechieftess1683 You don't need anyone, but if you really look, you will find someone. Even a 2 has a lot of 1's and even a few 3's who would jump at the opportunity.
As a Bruins fan, I am surprised to hear people say Marchand is a certain Hall-of-Famer. Including this season, he's been putting up points at an elite pace for only 6 years. In his first 454 games he scored 289 points. That's 0.637 points per game. Since then, in 369 games he has 450 points. 1.220 PPG. Except for Pierre Turgeon (1327 points) inexplicably not being in the HHOF, having about 1200 points guarantees players the HHOF. Marchand has 739 points. If he averages 1.0 PPG for the rest of his career, he'll need to play five full seasons after this one. By that time, he'll be 39 years old. It could happen, but it seems unlikely to me. I'll think he finish his career as one of those "not quite great enough for the HHOF" players.
Brad marchand is a nice guy, just because he hits people and fights people doesn’t mean he’s a bad guy. Mathew tcachuk and many more players do the same thing
The thing that nobody is mentioning is how much influence he has had on all the younger guys….. Frederick, Debrusk, pasta, etc etc have all learned to give 100% at all times… his dedication and work ethic are second to none… a true leader by example….hardest working man in hockey….
I dont like Marchands style of hockey - the facelicking in particular - but he is as effective as a player can be from a pest and offensive perspective. He plays with heart and unlike guys like Kane, he seems to be a great leader to his team and in the Bruins community.
Grown men failing to separate the player and the man. The dude has a job on the ice, to score goals AND mess with the other team. Lidström or Gretzky did not have the same jobs and that's why they are viewed in a different light.
well hes called the little ball of hate for a reason,hes good at his job and as a forward your job is to score goals and make the other team miss their shots, while helping defend the net so if marshy gets under your skin and you miss a goal or catch a penalty hes done his job. hes also one of the nicest off the ice
This feels like when somebody tries to get me not to dislike Tom Brady. Look, I'll admit that Brad Marchand is good with kids and he's not an evil man, but that's as far as you'll get me.
I'm a nucks fan, I've got no love for the bruins, but at the end of the day i recognize that Marchand ain't a bad human and at the end of the day all the "hate" towards him n his team just comes from a passion for the game, it's not serious, more for fun than anything. Player or fan, we're all just people that share a love for this sport
Super nice dude. Stopped to take a selfie with me while getting the team bus in Florida. He had his guitar and all his stuff and had no problem. Jack Edwards on the other hand had a bit of an attitude when asked for a picture. (He did pose but wow)
I would've just let Jack go by. Man, is he annoying. I can't even keep the sound on when I watch the Bruins. And forget the radio because Judd Sirott is even worse. I miss Dave Goucher - he was the best!!
Won’t lie like any fan of any team other than Boston was not a fan of Marchand even knowing it’s a game and that’s his job is to get under the other players skin. But this made me gain a whole lot of respect for him. Same happened with P.K. Suban seeing how 2 of my least favorite players are off the ice and how they interact with fans and kids gave me a new outlook of them.
It doesn't surprise me that Marchand is a decent guy off the ice - most players are. I remember an excerpt from Tiger Williams' book about how some people were surprised by how nice and polite he was considering his style of play. His response? Something along the lines of: What? You think we (as in the tough guys) go home and kick puppies? It should be noted that the enforcers were among the nicest players toward the fans once they stepped off the ice.
@@ThisHandleFeatureIsStupid I don't - people were mentioning the add-on in the comments section of a video "A Dose of Buckley" did on RUclips hiding the number of dislikes. I never looked further into to it as I don't really care how many likes/dislikes a video gets.
I know everybody hates him outside of Boston, but he's definitely got skills, not the least of which is being a burr under the saddle of his opponents. As a, Hawks fan I don't remember him doing anything dirty in the finals against him, just being a pain in the ass to play against and always a threat to score. In interviews I have seen, he seems like a really bright, interesting guy with a great sense of humor.
But if he wouldn’t do his antics and just play like the elite player he is then no one would have an issue with him. He CHOOSES to be a rat as people call him. All he has to do is play good and he would still get under other players skins because they KNOW he is just that good of a player. So to me he can be all nice off the ice but if he chooses to be a dumbass then we are going to treat him as one.
One of the best players in Nhl. Perfect team player and skilles player. Just have been doing a really stupid things to other players wich could have been affecting to his team
"A question I’m asked a lot is, “Is Marchand a good guy?” And I can tell you, no lie, that he’s a really, really great guy - if he’s on your team. Marshy’s a person who will always lighten up the mood when we need it. You can always tell when he’s in the room and when he’s not.

The guy always gets the final word. As soon as a guy on the other team messes up, Marshy will be right there to skate by him and say, “That’s the best play you’ll make all night. Keep going.” That’s if he’s in a good mood and going easy on the guy. If there’s a young kid on the other team, he’ll skate up to them between whistles and say, “Hey buddy, glad you could make it. Just try to soak it all in. Enjoy it. This is your last game before you’re sent down.” Of course there are many, many other truly hilarious things I’ve heard him say over the years, but none of them are really close to being appropriate for publication." Patrice Bergeron, _Back Where We Belong_
Honestly I'm not surprised. He's an empathetic person which is why he's so good at getting under his opponent's skin. If only he didn't slew foot and play to injure.
Usually the nastiest guys ON the ice the are best ones off of it. I've met Rick Tocchet and Milan Lucic (among other less pugilistic players) and both of 'em had fists like canned hams. They were also both the complete opposite of what you'd expect them to be like after you see them on the ice night in, night out.
Since it's inception 1977-78 there's only been 11 wingers to win this award. Bob Gainey has 4 of them, Jere Lehtinen has 3, Craig Ramsay, Dirk Graham, Sergei Federov, John Madden all have 1. Lehtenin was the last winger to win it in 03. The problem seems to be that faceoff % is a huge part of the reward now. I think Marshy & Mark Stone are the 2 best 200ft wingers in the game. I'm a Bruins fan, hate Marshy when he crosses the line. But he's the Bruins MVP that's for sure. Bergy is at legendry status of course, but Marshy is the one who stirs the tea in Beantown!
I honestly never knew that Brad had this reputation for being a good guy with fans, and SO great with kids. Feel kinda bad for hating on the guy for so long, even though I knew deep down inside me he was a good player who plays the role of instigator/provocateur perfectly. From one Brad to another, good job Marchand. Fuckin’ Brads.
His role is an agitator. A huge part of his job is to get under the skin of his opponents. As someone who is a boston fan, as well as someone who often thinks he goes too far, i'm still willing to recognize that doesnt mean he's like that off the ice
I'm a Montréal Canadiens fan so if anything, I would hold a bias against him. He's a winner and leader. The guy you hate to play against but would absolutely respect and admire if he was on your team.
My dad would always say we need 16 guys like that. Just a nightmare when playing but a real guy when he's being himself. That's the way it's suppose to be. Great job with the children Brad.
Marchand; what a guy. Used to hate him but he's such an elite player. Changed my mind entirely. Even the " slewfoot " thing hasn't changed my mind. Not much he can do with his height; next to the height of just about everyone on the ice around him. His hip check is at everyone else's knees..

he is my favorite hockey player, besides the entire Bruins team. Love Marshy, he is so sweet, they all are !
Honestly I'm not surprised. He's an empathetic person which is why he's so good at getting under his opponent's skin. If only he didn't slew foot and play to injure.
He’s amazing at hock just dirty
I'm a leafs fan and knew this about him. He's a good guy. I'd love to have him in Toronto but I know that won't happen. Lots of respect for him.
I'm watching it with my own eyes, but my brain refuses to acknowledge it.
Like Claude Lemieux , Darius Kasparitis and Ulf Samuelson before him, you hated their guts playing against them, until they were on your team.
the thumbnail lmaoo
I’m a Rangers fan, but I love Marchand. Some of the stuff he’s done is stupid or dirty, but he’s really talented and a great agitator.
I love the "Little Ball of Hate"
Even the ones you hate are the most kindest and sweetest people off the ice
Marchand is actually one of the players I admire more often than not off the ice.
He's like a Corey Perry type, play hard and on the edge but have hearts of gold 💛
Usually the nastiest guys ON the ice the are best ones off of it. I've met Rick Tocchet and Milan Lucic (among other less pugilistic players) and both of 'em had fists like canned hams. They were also both the complete opposite of what you'd expect them to be like after you see them on the ice night in, night out.
Marchand is a hell of a hockey player. And a nice guy. Wilson is a bastard
As a Boston fan I'm actually happy he did something nice for the leafs considering they are out biggest rival.
Ranger fan here, every game I've seen him, he's a solid star, but then he's the best player on the Ice for 3 or 4 shifts,, every game
There are guys like this all over the NHL. Tough as nails on the ice and super cool off it.
Crazy that he hasn’t won a Selke award.
Since it's inception 1977-78 there's only been 11 wingers to win this award. Bob Gainey has 4 of them, Jere Lehtinen has 3, Craig Ramsay, Dirk Graham, Sergei Federov, John Madden all have 1. Lehtenin was the last winger to win it in 03. The problem seems to be that faceoff % is a huge part of the reward now. I think Marshy & Mark Stone are the 2 best 200ft wingers in the game. I'm a Bruins fan, hate Marshy when he crosses the line. But he's the Bruins MVP that's for sure. Bergy is at legendry status of course, but Marshy is the one who stirs the tea in Beantown!
I honestly never knew that Brad had this reputation for being a good guy with fans, and SO great with kids. Feel kinda bad for hating on the guy for so long, even though I knew deep down inside me he was a good player who plays the role of instigator/provocateur perfectly. From one Brad to another, good job Marchand. Fuckin’ Brads.
He has been great for the B's so who cares what the rest of the league thinks.
His role is an agitator. A huge part of his job is to get under the skin of his opponents. As someone who is a boston fan, as well as someone who often thinks he goes too far, i'm still willing to recognize that doesnt mean he's like that off the ice
I'm a Montréal Canadiens fan so if anything, I would hold a bias against him. He's a winner and leader. The guy you hate to play against but would absolutely respect and admire if he was on your team.
My dad would always say we need 16 guys like that. Just a nightmare when playing but a real guy when he's being himself. That's the way it's suppose to be. Great job with the children Brad.
Marchand; what a guy. Used to hate him but he's such an elite player. Changed my mind entirely. Even the " slewfoot " thing hasn't changed my mind. Not much he can do with his height; next to the height of just about everyone on the ice around him. His hip check is at everyone else's knees..
These comments make me chuckle.
Favorite player.
Marchant is classic hockey player and a classy man
You wish Brad Marchand was on your team. I don't have to wish. He already IS on my team. Go Bruins.
The trouble is the nice guy video is really short, but the bad guy Rat video would be about three times as long.
