We apologize, but this video has failed to load.“I have not had a whole lot of chatter with Bunting,” Marchand said. “There’s not really many guys who like to get into it. Mitch is out there talking about video games and his dog and those terrible new skates that he has got out. But other than that, not a whole lot of guys who like to get into it.”Article content
Marchand then changed tack, acknowledging he doesn’t know Marner well, but is a fan of the Leafs star’s game. “I’ve talked to him a little bit here and there, just on the ice,” Marchand said. “I respect his game. I think he’s an incredible player. “That’s usually what I tell him, just that he is my favourite player. But I do think he is really good.
“When we’re not playing them, I enjoy watching him. The things that he does are really impressive. He is not a big guy either and he’s not intimidated. He goes to the front of the net, he goes in the corners. I actually really respect his game. I don’t get into it with him very often.”.Marchand figured the Leafs on are on the cusp of breaking through in the playoffs. For that to happen, the Leafs might have to get past Marchand’s Bruins.
