The two men mutually despise each other, and this sentiment extends to many players between the two clubs. I must admit that these two haven't made much effort to endear themselves to opposing teams.
To the point where Subban made some quite controversial comments following Marchand's injury, which could have ended his playoff run.
Indeed, according to the ESPN analyst, Marchand has pulled off this kind of move hundreds, if not thousands, of times, and this time, he's "the bug on the windshield."
The reactions to his remarks were instantly very strong on social media. People find his comments downright distasteful.
Marchand could be suffering from a concussion following contact with Sam Bennett. The Panthers forward delivered a punch to the side of his head while delivering a powerful body check.
You never wish for a player to be injured, especially not to the head, where the repercussions could be very serious. In this case, it could end the season for the Bruins' captain.
We know PK, he speaks his mind and doesn't hold back. He was that way on the ice, and he hasn't changed in the media.
