Poke the Bear

Evaluating Brad Marchand’s First Year as Captain

Evan Marinofsky joins Conor Ryan on Poke the Bear today to discuss the Bruins’ captain Brad Marchand and his first year with the C on his chest. How has this team evolved under his leadership, and how has he changed with his new leadership position? Plus, the B’s have gotten a taste of the injury bug as a few key players may be sidelined for some time. That, and much more!

Topics:

  • Reacting to Cutter Gauthier being traded to Anaheim
  • Bruins get a point against Colorado
  • The value of Brandon Carlo
  • How has Marchand done in Year 1 of being captain?
  • Johnny Beecher is bouncing back
