Bruins' Brad Marchand licks another player, this time Ryan Callahan

New series, same Brad Marchand.

During Game 4 between the Boston Bruins and Tampa Bay Lightning, emotions started to run high in the second period. After Boston’s Brad Marchand laid a hit on the Lightning’s Ryan Callahan, the two got face to face.

The Lightning forward learned the hard – and gross – way that Marchand is not the player you want to get overly close to.

Yes, that is the Bruins agitator licking Callahan’s face. While this is completely weird, it is not the first time Marchand has embraced himself like this with another player. Leo Komarov was added to the Bruins forward’s lick list in Round 1 of the playoffs.

Marchand’s licking habit poses a unique situation for the league. One would have to imagine the NHL will reach out to him and the Bruins about his behaviour.
